Radiation‐Induced Skin Injury in Cancer Radiotherapy: From Mechanisms to Management

open access: yesAdvanced Oncology, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
Radiation‐induced skin injuries (RISI) remain a significant challenge faced by cancer patients receiving radiotherapy (RT). This perspective article examines the pathophysiology of RISI and evaluates the currently existing and emerging therapeutic strategies, including stem cell‐derived exosomes and advanced hydrogels.

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

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 11, November 2026.
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 ...

Assessing the role of plan complexity and target geometry through multi‐institutional gel based end‐to‐end QA in multi‐focal single isocenter stereotactic radiosurgery

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Single‐isocenter stereotactic radiosurgery enables efficient treatment of multiple brain metastases (SI‐MBM SRS), but demands high geometric accuracy. Plan complexity metrics are increasingly used as indicators for quality assurance (QA) performance, however their applicability to SRS remains uncertain, particularly in the context ...

Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy for lung cancer: Correlation between dose and volume

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background In lung cancer radiotherapy, the volume of the lung receiving a dose above 20 Gy (V20Gy) and the mean lung dose are widely recognized dosimetric indicators for predicting radiation pneumonitis. However, there is currently no unified model to predict the minimum achievable values of V20Gy and mean lung dose.

Feasibility of multi‐energy CT and fat fraction MRI for characterizing active bone marrow response to pelvic external beam radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Pelvic external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), frequently exposes a substantial fraction of active bone marrow (ABM), leading to radiation‐induced marrow suppression and associated hematologic toxicity. Accurate delineation and quantitative assessment of ABM are therefore essential to enable marrow‐sparing radiotherapy strategies ...
