Technique considerations for implementing volumetric‐modulated arc therapy for total body irradiation within an Australian tertiary institution

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 165-172, March 2025.
In 2020, our institution transitioned to the Eclipse™ treatment planning system and to Truebeam® linear accelerators with 6 MV and 10 MV energies. The linear accelerators were installed in smaller bunkers that could not accommodate 400 cm FAD. A multidisciplinary team within the institution was created to evaluate existing total body irradiation ...

Enhanced antibacterial effect of blue light in combination with an Amazonian tree sap (Croton lechleri)

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Blue light (BL) triggers reactive oxygen species (ROS) production via activation of endogenous bacterial porphyrins, resulting in bactericidal effects. When combined with Sangre de Drago, its terpenes inhibit bacterial biofilm formation and also enhance the antibacterial effect of blue light by becoming activated and causing a photodynamic therapy‐like

Retrospective Study Evaluating Outcomes Following Palliative Radiotherapy With or Without Chemotherapy for Dogs With Presumed Cardiac Hemangiosarcoma

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Canine cardiac hemangiosarcoma (cHSA) represents a complex clinical challenge in that those afflicted have an acute risk of death due to cardiac tamponade and high morbidity and mortality given the frequency of metastasis. Previous studies show that radiation therapy (RT) can decrease the risk of tamponade; however, an optimal approach has yet
