Evaluation of deformable image registration algorithm for determination of accumulated dose for brachytherapy of cervical cancer patients

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Brachytherapy, 2019
Purpose This study was designed to assess the dose accumulation (DA) of bladder and rectum between brachytherapy fractions using hybrid-based deformable image registration (DIR) and compare it with the simple summation (SS) approach of GEC-ESTRO in ...

- In Vivo Dosimetry in Brachytherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
As discussed in the following sections, in vivo dosimetry has been utilized for dierent purposes during the radiation therapy of cancer patients. Initially, this technique was used to verify dose to the organs adjacent to the implanted volume. However, verications of the accuracy of the treatment delivery for complex treatment techniques have been ...

The contemporary management of prostate cancer

open access: yesCA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, EarlyView.
Abstract Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in two thirds of the world, with an expected doubling in both incidence and mortality in the next two decades. No strong environmental associations exist for the development of prostate cancer; therefore, lifestyle measures are unlikely to mitigate this increasing burden.

Abscopal effect of high-dose-rate brachytherapy on pelvic bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Brachytherapy, 2019
Radiation therapy is considered an optimal partner for immunotherapies. Several pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that regression of distant metastases, at remote non-irradiated sites of the body, termed the “abscopal effect”, can be achieved by an ...

The association between additional radiotherapy after systemic chemotherapy and the prognosis of stage FIGO 2018 IVB cervical cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 170, Issue 2, Page 908-915, August 2025.
Abstract Objective Systemic platinum‐based chemotherapy is the first‐line treatment of choice for metastatic cervical cancer. While subsequent radiotherapy after primary chemotherapy is a potential option, its benefit remains unclear. This multicenter retrospective study aimed to evaluate whether post‐chemotherapy radiotherapy improves the prognosis of
