Our department is one of only a handful of facilities in the world with the RefleXion treatment platform, a technology that combines PET and CT with a medical linear accelerator. Read more about this unique approach, known as biology-guided radiotherapy.

Our radiation oncology team performed the first treatment of the world’s most precise radiotherapy. The @reflexionmed SCINTIX® therapy delivers a dose of radiation that precisely targets tumors, sparing surrounding tissue.

Today we treated our first patient on the RefleXion X1 platform, becoming the first center on the east coast to have this exciting new technology! Patient outcomes will be collected as part of a multi-institutional prospective registry. @reflexionmed

On April 2, 2021, Stanford Rad Onc conducted the world's very first PET scan for a patient on the RefleXion X1, kicking off our effort to making biology-guided radiotherapy a reality.

Wearing masks isn't a partisan issue — it's a patriotic act that can save countless lives. That's why I signed an executive order today issuing a mask mandate on federal property. It's time to mask up, America.

JUST IN: “This is not news we deliver lightly,” @margbrennan says as she reports: Trump Cabinet secretaries are discussing invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump. Nothing formal yet presented to VP Pence.
“I’m talking about actual members of the Cabinet,” she says

The eyes of the world are upon us, and the President's incitement of violence, his inducement of chaos, and his inability to faithfully "discharge the powers and duties of his office" make it clear.
The President has refused to protect our democracy and must be removed.

Tonight, I am asking Vice President Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and begin the process of removing President Trump from office.

I am in the House Chambers. We have been instructed to lie down on the floor and put on our gas masks. Chamber security and Capitol Police have their guns drawn as protesters bang on the front door of the chamber.
This is not a protest. This is an attack on America.
