GPUs - Tool for Accelerating Cancer Research

GPUs - Tool for Accelerating Cancer Research

Cancer as most of us might know is treated with not only the poisonous chemotherapy but also with highly potent beams of radiation. This has worked well so far to kill the cancer cells and to destroy tumors. The problem is that radiation does not discern and kills all cells in its path be it cancerous ones or otherwise. Doctors in the field try to avoid the healthy cells by taking MRI scans as accurately as possible but the problem with these 3D models is that most are out of date.
