Experience

Awarded by the Royal College of Radiologists of the United Kingdom for his BCRM presentation, Christopher Nutting is a prestigious Oncologist specialized in the areas of Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy. He has an extensive professional background of more than 30 years, where he has been part of reference health institutions such as the Royal Marsden Hospital or the Institute of Cancer Research in London.  

In his firm commitment to optimize the quality of life of his patients, he contributed to the installation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging machines for the first time in Great Britain, incorporating a scanner and Linear Accelerator to locate tumors with greater precision. In addition, his clinical research has contributed to the development of several advances in the oncological field. His most outstanding contribution is Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy, a technique that improves the efficacy of cancer treatments by directing radiation to a specific target so as not to damage nearby healthy tissue.  

In turn, he has performed more than 350 clinical studies and scientific publications that have facilitated the understanding of malignant tumors. For example, its "PARSPOT" trial provided relevant clinical data on the efficacy of Linear Accelerator Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy in terms of local carcinoma control and patient survival. Thanks to these results, the UK Department of Health established practices to optimize both the accuracy and effectiveness of Radiotherapy in the treatment of Head and Neck Cancer

He is a regular speaker at Scientific Congresses, where he shares his solid knowledge in subjects such as Radiotherapy Technology or innovative therapies for the approach of people with Dysphagia. In this way, he helps medical professionals to stay at the forefront of advances in these fields in order to provide excellent services.
