Utilizing patient data: A tutorial on predicting second cancer with machine learning models

Cancer Medicine, Volume 13, Issue 18, September 2024.
Abstract Background The article explores the potential risk of secondary cancer (SC) due to radiation therapy (RT) and highlights the necessity for new modeling techniques to mitigate this risk. Methods By employing machine learning (ML) models, specifically decision trees, in the research process, a practical framework is established for forecasting ...

Reducing the Risk of Secondary Lung Cancer in Treatment Planning of Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation

Frontiers in Oncology, 2020
Purpose: Adjuvant accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) results in low local recurrence risks. However, the survival benefit of adjuvant radiotherapy APBI for low-risk breast cancer might partially be offset by the risk of radiation-induced lung ...

Multimodal radiotherapy dose prediction using a multi‐task deep learning model

Medical Physics, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 3932-3949, June 2024.
Abstract Background In radiation therapy (RT), accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) has emerged as an increasingly preferred treatment modality over conventional whole breast irradiation due to its targeted dose delivery and shorter course of treatment.

Accelerated partial breast irradiation: Current evidence and future developments

Cancer Innovation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2024.
Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) as a substitute for WBI for patients with early breast cancer is a hot spot in clinical research. The implementation methods of APBI mainly include brachytherapy, external beam radiation therapy, and intraoperative radiotherapy. This article provides a review of the clinical effects and adverse reactions of

Partial breast irradiation with CyberKnife after breast conserving surgery: a pilot study in early breast cancer

Radiation Oncology, 2018
Background Local recurrences after breast conserving treatment are mainly close to the original tumor site, and as such shorter fractionation strategies focused on and nearest mammary gland, i.e.
