The management of ultracentral thoracic tumors with ablative dose of radiotherapy remains challenging given proximity to critical central structures. We report patient outcomes, toxicity, and dosimetry for ult...
Oligometastatic disease in prostate cancer (PCa) is a challenging clinical scenario encountered more frequently with the widespread adoption of PSMA-PET. SBRT aims to defer androgen deprivation and may deliver...
Beam matching is a concept in radiotherapy applied to clinics where more than one linac is employed to harmonise beam characteristics across linacs for allowing patients interchange without replanning. In view...
Prognostic biomarkers identifying patients with early tumor progression after local ablative therapy remain an unmet clinical need. The aim of this study was to investigate circulating miR-21 and miR-210 level...
Breast radiotherapy (RT) induces diffuse myocardial changes, which may increase the incidence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. This study aimed to evaluate the early signs of diffuse fibrosis...
Intra-operative radiation therapy (IORT) is a newer partial breast irradiation technique that has been well studied in 2 large randomized trials, the TARGIT-A and ELIOT trials. We initiated our IORT program in...
With remarkable success and few side effects, induction chemoimmunotherapy has been used to improve the prognosis of patients with resectable or potentially resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), even ...
Radiation-induced oral mucositis (RIOM), is a common, debilitating, acute side effect of radiotherapy for oral cavity (OC) and oropharyngeal (OPx) cancers; technical innovations for reducing it are seldom disc...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) who underwent kidney-sparing surgery (KSS).
For accurate thoracic and abdominal radiotherapy, inter- and intrafractional geometrical uncertainties need to be considered to enable accurate margin sizes. We aim to quantify interfractional diaphragm and ab...
