I swear there were people there (just empty front row)! Happy to have presented our pos phase II clinical trial results from PROMISE, which has revolutionized our ability to safely (with built in gating as safety mech) treat young children (3-7) without sedation! #ASTRO25

To close out a day of fantastic research, our Chief of Peds and Lymphoma Radiation Oncology Services, Dr. @kakumar86 presented his work during the Best of Physics session about the PROMISE clinical trial to reduce anesthesia use in pediatric patients undergoing RT. #ASTRO25
