On voxel-by-voxel accumulated dose for prostate radiation therapy using deformable image registration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Since delivered dose is rarely the same with planned, we calculated the delivered total dose to ten prostate radiotherapy patients treated with rectal balloons using deformable dose accumulation (DDA) and compared it with the planned dose.

Adaptive Radiotherapy for an Uncommon Chloroma [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2016
Granulocytic sarcomas, also referred to as chloromas or myeloid sarcomas, are extramedullary neoplasms that are composed of immature myeloid cells. This uncommon disease is known to be radiosensitive. However, the total dose and dose per fraction are not standardized.

Adaptive Radiotherapy for Anatomical Changes

open access: yesSeminars in Radiation Oncology, 2019
The anatomy of cancer patients changes between radiation treatment planning and delivery as well as over the course of radiotherapy. Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) aims to deliver radiation accurately and precisely in the presence of such changes. To that end, ART uses an imaging feedback loop to quantify these changes and modify the treatment plan ...

Adaptive Management of Liver Cancer Radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Radiation Oncology, 2010
Adaptive radiation therapy for liver cancer has the potential to reduce normal tissue complications and enable dose escalation, allowing the potential for tumor control in this challenging site. Using adaptive techniques to tailor treatment margins to reflect patient-specific breathing motions and image-guidance techniques can reduce the high dose ...

The Changes in Pharyngeal Constrictor Muscles Related to Head and Neck Radiotherapy: A Systematic Review

open access: yesTechnology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2020
It is well known that radiation damage of the pharyngeal constrictor muscles, the glottic larynx, and the supraglottic larynx may lead to dysphagia, an unwanted effect of head and neck radiotherapy.
