Pulsed dose rate brachytherapy – is it the right way? [PDF]

, 2010
Pulsed dose rate (PDR-BT) treatment is a brachytherapy modality that combines physical advantages of high-doserate (HDR-BT) technology (isodose optimization, radiation safety) with the radiobiological advantages of low-dose-rate (LDR-BT) brachytherapy ...

Radiotherapy‐Induced Side Effects: Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, Prevention and Treatments

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Radiotherapy for malignancies frequently injures the organs’ systems through oxidative stress, fibrosis, inflammation, and vascular damage. This review systematically maps the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and emerging therapies to propose a mechanism‑network‑targeted framework for integrated, personalized care in radiation oncology.

Expanding dose and dose‐rate capabilities of a synchrotron‐based pre‐clinical proton FLASH irradiation platform

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Proton FLASH radiotherapy has demonstrated promising normal tissue sparing for similar tumor control at ultra‐high dose rates (> 40 Gy/s), but systematic investigation of dose‐rate‐dependent biological mechanisms is limited. Most existing proton platforms operate within a narrow dose‐rate range. Synchrotron‐based systems are further
