"Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) remains a fascinating and sophisticated method of dose delivery with utmost precision, even in times of a growing number of competing techniques for dose escalation. For a long time, its use was restricted to just a few institutions due to high logistical requirements. The development of mobile linacs, as well as alternative technical approaches, has opened the way for its rapid broad application and integration into routine treatment"

"Furthermore, the arrival of 3D imaging in operating theatres, precise dosimetry and the possibility of delivering doses in Flash mode will help to erase part of the glass ceiling that limited us, and will offer exciting prospects and new clinical indications in the world of IORT"
