Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who are ineligible for upfront metastasectomy may still become candidates for secondary metastasectomy with curative intent following response to primary chemotherapy. However, most studies dichotomize metastatic colorectal cancer into resectable and unresectable disease.

Abstract Background Pelvic external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), frequently exposes a substantial fraction of active bone marrow (ABM), leading to radiation‐induced marrow suppression and associated hematologic toxicity. Accurate delineation and quantitative assessment of ABM are therefore essential to enable marrow‐sparing radiotherapy strategies ...

Seeing radiation: Applications of an imaging survey meter in radiation oncology
Abstract Background and purpose Radiation shielding surveys require location and evaluation of radiation hotspots in shielding barriers. This process is normally done by using a conventional survey meter and slowly moving the survey meter manually across the face of the barrier.

ABSTRACT Background Platinum‐doublet concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) is frequently complicated by severe neutropenia. This Phase II trial investigated whether combining active bone marrow‐sparing (ABMS) radiotherapy with prophylactic pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor (PEG ...
