Guidelines for Pediatric Radiotherapy Simulation: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group Radiation Oncology Discipline

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.

Failure modes and effects analysis for clinical implementation of online adaptive radiotherapy: A systematic review

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background The accuracy of radiotherapy is limited by anatomical variations occurring over time scales ranging from sub‐seconds to days. Online Adaptive Radiotherapy (OART) addresses this by enabling daily plan adaptation based on real‐time imaging.

Dosimetric and radiobiological evaluations as well as technical aspects of left breast treatment employing DIBH with SGRT in radiotherapy with IMRT step and shoot, IMRT Dynamic MLC and VMAT

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Treatment of the left breast using deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH), combined with surface guided radiotherapy (SGRT), has emerged as the standard for reducing the dose to the heart, the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), and the ipsilateral lung.

Evaluation of the environ SRS immobilization mask system for HyperArc: Dosimetric attenuation, dose calculation accuracy, and clinical setup reproducibility

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Frameless thermoplastic masks are standard for intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), with the Encompass (CQ Medical) widely used on the Varian HyperArc platform. A candidate mask must minimize beam attenuation, permit accurate dose calculation, and enable reproducible setup, yet these are rarely assessed together ...
