It wasn't that long ago that we would have scoffed at the idea of using radiation therapy to treat primary kidney cancer. Not any more!! We are joined by two top experts in kidney cancer, and leaders of ongoing research in this field, to discuss the expanding role for radiation therapy in managing primary renal cancer. Dr Rana McKay, GU Medical Oncologist at the University of California, San Diego, and Associate Professor Shankar Siva, Radiation Oncologist at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne, take us through the relatively recent history of radiation for renal cancer and highlight some ongoing trials in this area. A fantastic overview for anyone interested in renal cancer. Plus our intrepid social media watcher, Dr Aoife McVey, pops in to tell us what has caught her eye on Twitter this week. You can watch us broadcasting from our studio here on Youtube.
