Proton therapy versus photon radiation therapy for the management of a recurrent desmoid tumor of the right flank: a case report

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2012
Desmoid tumors are benign mesenchymal tumors with a strong tendency for local recurrence after surgery. Radiotherapy improves local control following incomplete resection, but nearby organs at risk may limit the dose to the target volume.

Dose-painting intensity-modulated proton therapy for intermediate- and high-risk meningioma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND Newly diagnosed WHO grade II-III or any WHO grade recurrent meningioma exhibit an aggressive behavior and thus are considered as high- or intermediate risk tumors. Given the unsatisfactory rates of disease control and survival after primary

Redefine the Role of Spot-Scanning Proton Beam Therapy for the Single Brain Metastasis Stereotactic Radiosurgery

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
PurposeTo explore the role of using Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) proton beam therapy in single lesion brain stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), we developed and validated a dosimetric in silico model to assist in the selection of an optimal treatment approach

Reflections on beam configuration optimization for intensity-modulated proton therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Presumably, intensity-modulated proton radiotherapy (IMPT) is the most powerful form of proton radiotherapy. In the current state of the art, IMPT beam configurations (i.e.
