Microstructure air chamber showed linear dose response for conventional and ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy
A thick gas electron multiplier air chamber showed strong dose linearity under conventional and ultra-high dose rate conditions.
Thyroid complication models showed only moderate long-term validation in head and neck cancer
Existing thyroid complication models showed moderate performance and frequent miscalibration in long-term head and neck cancer survivorship.
Target-prioritized intensity modulated radiotherapy appeared feasible in nasopharyngeal carcinoma near the spinal cord
No radiation myelopathy was observed after target-prioritized intensity modulated radiotherapy for selected nasopharyngeal carcinoma near the spinal cord.
Larger bladder geometry was linked to lower planned bladder dose in prostate radiotherapy
Larger bladder volume was strongly associated with lower planned bladder dose in a static five-fraction prostate radiotherapy analysis.
Posterior tumour drift threatens lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy target coverage
In free-breathing lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy, posterior drift exceeded the 4-millimetre margin in 15.7% of patients within 20 minutes.
Magnetic resonance imaging after hepatocellular carcinoma stereotactic body radiation therapy requires serial assessment
After stereotactic body radiation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma, magnetic resonance response evolved over months, making early enhancement alone unreliable.
Deep learning stopping power maps supported magnetic resonance-only proton planning for brain tumors
Synthetic stopping power maps showed small target dose differences, but residual range and low-dose gamma errors still require further validation.
Deep learning synthetic computed tomography supported head-and-neck adaptive radiotherapy dose recalculation
Synthetic computed tomography from cone-beam computed tomography achieved a 98.7% gamma pass rate for head-and-neck dose recalculation.
Direct cord robust optimization preserved target coverage near the spinal cord
In ten paraspinal chordoma plans, direct cord robust optimization improved coverage and robustness while maintaining acceptable spinal cord doses.
A risk score predicted prolonged radiotherapy completion in locally advanced cervical cancer
A score above seven identified patients with treatment beyond 56 days in 53.6% versus 17.8% at lower scores.
Large target and heart volumes predicted replanning during proton therapy for thoracic cancer
In 180 thoracic proton therapy patients, larger clinical target volume and heart volume independently predicted the need for adaptive replanning.
Monte Carlo simulations identified depth-specific settings for proton minibeam radiation therapy
Simulated proton minibeams preserved spatial fractionation and target homogeneity for targets up to 20 centimetres with depth-adapted beam widths and spacing.
Carbon fiber-reinforced implants may reduce uncertainty in postoperative spine stereotactic body radiotherapy
Carbon fiber-reinforced polyetheretherketone implants consistently reduced imaging artifacts and dosimetric uncertainty versus titanium, but clinical outcome evidence remains limited.
Computed tomography radiomics showed exploratory recurrence signals in mandibular osteoradionecrosis
In 24 surgically confirmed cases, three radiomic features differed nominally between pure osteoradionecrosis and osteoradionecrosis with recurrence.
