This work ultimately contributed to U.S. FDA approval in 2000 for the clinical use of vascular brachytherapy to treat in-stent coronary artery restenosis.Today, BMI and its affiliated company, Best Vascular, continue to advance vascular brachytherapy and expand its application to other forms of vascular stenosis.BMI promotes theranostics and particle therapy by offering a range of cyclotrons from 7.5 MeV to 230 MeV, variable-energy for proton therapy, and medical synchrotrons up to 400 MeV for heavy-ion particle therapy, from protons to carbon.Recently, the Best 70-MeV high-current proton cyclotron successfully completed its Factory Acceptance Tests and was shipped to the National Atomic Research Institute in Taipei, Taiwan. It is the second such system delivered by TBG.Suthanthiran’s commitment to improving healthcare extends beyond technology and commercial ventures. His nonprofit, Global Best Cure Foundation (GBCF), plans to establish the first of several Best Cure Pro Health Centers—proactive healthcare facilities—in South India offering preventive and primary medical care, dental, eye care, and wellness services emphasizing prevention, early detection, healthy living, and accessible healthcare.GBCF also plans to establish a Best Cure Cancer Center in South India, designed to provide comprehensive cancer care through a nonprofit, 24/7 operating model.Through these initiatives, TBG, Best Cure Foundation, and GBCF seek to promote greater understanding of nutrition, healthy lifestyle choices, preventive healthcare, and practical approaches to improving long-term health and well-being.View source version on businesswire.com: This advertisement has not loaded yet.Notice for the Postmedia NetworkThis website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.
