Synchrotron-generated microbeam sensorimotor cortex transections induce seizure control without disruption of neurological functions.

Synchrotron-generated X-ray microplanar beams (microbeams) are characterized by the ability to deliver extremely high doses of radiation to spatially restricted volumes of tissue. Minimal dose spreading outside the beam path provides an exceptional degree of protection from radio-induced damage to t...
