  schema:description "Microbeam radiotherapy splits an X-ray beam into many very thin parallel slices, each narrower than a hair, with gaps between them. Healthy tissue between the slices recovers, while the tumour, hit from several directions, does not. It has been tested in animals and is being prepared for first use in people."@en ;
