    Read excerpt

    A noninvasive neurosurgical procedure that delivers radiation to a specific brain pathway significantly reduced symptoms of major depression among people with severe, treatment-resistant psychiatric illness, study results showed. Stereotactic radiosurgical (SRS) capsulotomy also led to a significant reduction in suicidal ideation, findings from a prospective observational study presented at ASTRO Annual Meeting showed. “Patients had remarkable, life-changing improvements — and, given the resolut

    More than a dozen studies presented at ASCO Annual Meeting added to a growing volume of research that suggests GLP-1 receptor agonists may protect against several types of cancer.
