Real‐world clinical impact of implementing and updating a deep learning‐based automatic contouring system in rectal cancer radiotherapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Accurate delineation of target volumes and organs‐at‐risk (OARs) is a critical yet labor‐intensive component of rectal cancer radiotherapy. While deep learning (DL)‐based automatic contouring systems are increasingly used to address inter‐observer variability and improve efficiency, artificial intelligence models require rigorous ...

Evaluation of inter‐fractional anatomical variations due to compression belt placement reproducibility using MR‐guided radiotherapy treatment fraction images

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Abdominal compression (AC) using a belt‐based system is widely employed in radiation therapy to limit respiration‐induced target motion for abdominal and hepatic malignancies. While AC has demonstrated efficacy in reducing intrafraction motion amplitude, the interfractional anatomical consequences of daily compression belt (CB ...

Angiography‐Negative Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Detected After Emergent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Non‐ST‐Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Neurological deterioration, headache, vomiting, bradycardia, or hypertension after emergent percutaneous coronary intervention should prompt immediate brain imaging. When subarachnoid hemorrhage is detected shortly after coronary stenting, the hemorrhage onset may remain uncertain, and antiplatelet decisions require individualized ...

Pott's Spine Presenting With Concurrent Paraspinal, Retropharyngeal, and Wrist Abscesses: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Spinal tuberculosis may present atypically with multifocal cold abscesses without neurological deficit or constitutional symptoms. Concurrent lumbosacral paraspinal, retropharyngeal, and wrist abscesses, though rare, should raise suspicion for tuberculosis, and early diagnosis with MRI and GeneXpert enables effective minimally invasive ...

Unusual Spinal Epidural and Paraspinal Venous Engorgement Secondary to Hepatosplenic Schistosomiasis: A Rare Cause of Severe Low Back Pain

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe low back pain from spinal epidural and paraspinal venous engorgement secondary to hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is rare. MRI revealed dilated epidural veins and neural foraminal narrowing. The patient was managed conservatively with analgesia and carvedilol for portal hypertension and subsequently experienced complete resolution of back

Association Between Temporal Muscle Thickness and Survival in Older Patients With Brain Metastases Undergoing Radiation Therapy

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Finding reliable prognostic markers for patients with brain metastases would be beneficial since they could be used in clinical practice when making treatment decisions. Recent literature has analyzed the role of temporalis muscle thickness (TMT) as a prognostic marker in patients with brain metastases with mixed results.

Short‐Term Effect of Negative Verbal Language Versus Positive Verbal Language on Physical and Functional Capacity and Pain in People With Chronic Primary Low Back Pain

European Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 8, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of years lived with disability. While education is recommended by most guidelines, the type of language used can lead to a placebo or nocebo effect. This study aims to compare the short‐term effect of negative language versus positive language on physical and functional capacity in ...
