Intensity-modulated proton therapy vs intensity-modulated radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a case–control studyResearch in context [PDF]

The Lancet Regional Health. Americas
Summary: Background: Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) is associated with fewer acute toxicities compared with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in definitive treatment of nonmetastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy for prostate cancer

Translational Andrology and Urology, 2018
Radiation therapy (RT) is a curative treatment modality for localized prostate cancer. Over the past two decades, advances in technology and imaging have considerably changed RT in prostate cancer treatment. Treatment has evolved from 2-dimensional (2D) planning using X-ray fields based on pelvic bony landmarks to 3-dimensional (3D) conformal RT (CRT ...

A network analysis of self‐reported psychoneurological symptoms in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing intensity‐modulated radiotherapy

Cancer, 2022
Patients with head and neck cancer experience psychoneurological symptoms (PNS) (i.e., depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, pain, and cognitive dysfunction) during intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) that decrease their functional status, quality ...

Effect of intensity-modulated radiation therapy on sciatic nerve injury caused by echinococcosis

Neural Regeneration Research, 2021
Conventional radiotherapy has a good killing effect on femoral echinococcosis. However, the sciatic nerve around the lesion is irreversibly damaged owing to bystander effects.
