COMP Report: Patient‐specific quality assurance practices in Canadian radiotherapy—results from a national survey

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Patient‐specific quality assurance (PSQA) is an essential component of modern radiotherapy, ensuring safe and accurate delivery of increasingly complex treatments. Given its resource‐intensive nature and the availability of evolving approaches, examining how PSQA is implemented and optimized across Canada is important to inform best practices.

Identification of metabolic genes for the prediction of prognosis and tumor microenvironment infiltration in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer

Open Life Sciences, 2022
Early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are at substantial risk of poor prognosis. We attempted to develop a reliable metabolic gene-set-based signature that can predict prognosis accurately for early-stage patients.

Early Radiation Therapy Response Assessment Using Multi‐Scale Photoacoustic Imaging

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
Tomographic and mesoscopic photoacoustics capture intratumoural features of radioresistance and response. ABSTRACT There is a critical unmet clinical need to identify biomarkers that predict and detect radiation therapy (RT) response in cancer. Using the unique capabilities of multi‐scale photoacoustic imaging (PAI) to depict tumor oxygenation and ...

Genetic and Immunohistochemical Profiling of Malignant Mesothelioma With Brain Metastasis: A Report of Two Cases

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Brain metastasis (BM) occurs in < 3% of malignant mesothelioma (MM) cases and is associated with an aggressive disease course. While genomic profiling has provided insight into molecular alterations in MM, the characteristics of MM with brain involvement remain unexplored.

Stage III Lymph Node–Positive Non‐Small‐Cell Lung Cancer Patients With or Without Lymph Node Irradiation by Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy: Propensity Score–Matched Analysis

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 20, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study compared the local control (LC) and survival of patients with stage III lymph node–positive non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received lymph node irradiation (LNs R+) and those who did not (LNs R−). Methods We retrospectively reviewed patients with stage III LN–positive NSCLC who underwent stereotactic body radiotherapy
