Is Diffusion Tensor Imaging-Guided Radiotherapy the New State-of-the-Art? A Review of the Current Literature and Technical Insights

Applied Sciences, 2022
Despite the increasing precision of radiotherapy delivery, it is still frequently associated with neurological complications. This is in part due to damage to eloquent white matter (WM) tracts, which is made more likely by the fact they cannot be ...

Ewing Sarcoma in Infants and Children Under 2 Years of Age: A French Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ewing sarcoma, the second most common primary bone cancer in children, requires intensive treatment that may lead to significant long‐term sequelae, particularly in infants. We retrospectively analyzed data from 1621 French patients treated between 1988 and 2015 within the EW88/93/97 or EE99 trials, focusing on 17 infants diagnosed before 24 ...

Safety and Effectiveness of a High‐Dose, Tailored Tissue Plasminogen Activator Therapy Protocol: A Joint Pediatric Hematology and Cardiac ICU Quality Improvement Initiative Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric thromboembolism is increasingly encountered in critical care. Systemic thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) facilitates vessel or valve patency, yet pediatric‐specific protocols remain undefined, and safety concerns persist. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a tailored, prolonged systemic tPA

WE-A-BRA-03: Towards real-time ultrasound image-guided abdominal radiotherapy

, 2012
Accurate tumor positioning in stereotactic body radiotherapy of abdominal lesions is often hampered by organ motion and set-up errors. The problems of the daily variation (interfractional motion) in tumor position can be partially corrected with on-line ...

Global Efforts to Reduce Paediatric Cancer Care Disparities in Radiotherapy: A Decade Change

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We present an update on the status, needs and challenges faced by paediatric imaging and radiotherapy (RT) programmes globally after a previous survey conducted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) 10 years prior. Methods We developed and distributed a 121‐question survey to radiation oncologists, medical physicists and ...

Helium ion beam imaging for image guided ion radiotherapy

Radiation Oncology, 2018
Background Ion beam radiotherapy provides potential for increased dose conformation to the target volume. To translate it into a clinical advantage, it is necessary to guarantee a precise alignment of the actual internal patient geometry with the ...

Mechanical high-intensity focused ultrasound creates unique tumor debris enhancing dendritic cell-induced T cell activation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
IntroductionIn situ tumor ablation releases a unique repertoire of antigens from a heterogeneous population of tumor cells. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a completely noninvasive ablation therapy that can be used to ablate tumors either by ...
