Personalized Radiation Attenuating Materials for Gastrointestinal Mucosal Protection

Cancer patients undergoing therapeutic radiation routinely develop injury of the adjacent gastrointestinal (GI) tract mucosa due to treatment. To reduce radiation dose to critical GI structures including the rectum and oral mucosa, 3D‐printed GI radioprotective devices composed of high‐Z materials a...
