🔬 Advancing the future of cancer treatment

A team of researchers from UOW's Centre for Medical Radiation Physics has received $1.26 million in funding to further develop Lantern, a pioneering cancer imaging technology that could significantly improve the way tumours are visualised during radiotherapy treatment.

The funding will support the next stage of development and help move the technology closer to clinical trials. By delivering clearer images while reducing imaging radiation doses, Lantern has the potential to improve outcomes for patients and support more precise, personalised cancer care.
