Verifying calculated dose to the breast in stereotactic radiotherapy: A practical phantom‐based method

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Reference dosimetry for the GammaPod breast radiosurgery device is determined in a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) phantom, while the clinical dose calculations assume the patient's breast has the atomic composition of water with a density (∼0.935 g/cm3).

A Monte Carlo based dose verification tool for an HDR Ir‐192 brachytherapy source and its evaluation on extremity malignancies

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background TG‐43 formalism dose calculation for brachytherapy with the homogeneous water‐based assumption is widely used, which can lead to dose inaccuracy in treatment planning. Purpose Extremity malignancies are also treated with high‐dose‐rate (HDR) 192Ir interstitial brachytherapy, a treatment site that has not been specifically ...

Clinical outcomes, toxicity, and cosmesis in breast cancer patients with close skin spacing treated with accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using multi-lumen/catheter applicators

, 2016
Purpose: Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using a single-lumen device is associated with better cosmetic outcomes if the spacing between the applicator and skin is > 7 mm.

Response of cereals to intercropping with non‐food crops in tropical and subtropical regions: A meta‐analysis

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Accelerated partial breast irradiation: An advanced form of hypofractionation [PDF]

, 2008
Altered fractionation schedules are being increasingly investigated in the treatment of breast cancer. Two such schedules that are frequently compared are hypofractionated external beam radiation therapy (HERT) and accelerated partial breast irradiation (

Dosimetric comparison of TG‐43 formalism and HU‐based AcurosBV algorithms in HDR brachytherapy for head‐and‐neck superficial lesions with H.A.M. applicators

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Background TG‐43 formalism assumes homogeneous water media, potentially overlooking anatomical heterogeneities that affect dose accuracy. AcurosBV, a model‐based dose calculation algorithm, accounts for tissue and material heterogeneities. This study evaluates their dosimetric differences in high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy using Harrison ...
