Enhancing accuracy in proton therapy: The impact of geometric uncertainty models in head and neck cancer treatment

Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Anatomical changes present a major source of uncertainty in head and neck (H&N) cancer treatment. Accurate modeling of these changes is important for enhancing treatment precision and supporting better outcomes. Purpose The purpose of this study is to assess different anatomical uncertainty modeling methods in robust optimization ...

An isodose‐constrained automatic treatment planning strategy using a multicriteria predicted dose rating

Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous knowledge‐based planning studies have demonstrated the feasibility of predicting three‐dimensional photon dose distributions and subsequently generating treatment plans. The steepness of dose fall‐off represents a critical metric for clinical plan evaluation; however, dose fall‐off similarity is frequently overlooked in ...

Comparative analysis of residual setup errors in head and neck patients from upright versus supine radiotherapy postures

Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Carbon‐ion rotating gantries use is limited by its large size, weight, and high cost. Gantry‐free modality enables the reduction of the overall size, weight, and cost. Among them, upright treatment, which utilizes fixed ion beamlines, in combination with a treatment chair capable of 360° rotation and adjustable pitch angle (enabling

Stroke Risk in Head and Neck Cancer: A Meta‐analysis of Reconstructed Individual Patient Survival Data

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Although previous studies suggest an increased stroke risk in head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors, the risk with various treatment modalities, including radiotherapy, is less certain. This study investigates stroke incidence and risk in HNC patients, including how different treatments influence stroke risk. Data Sources A literature

Single‐cell landscape and clinical outcomes of infiltrating B cells in colorectal cancer

Immunology, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 135-151, January 2023., 2023
Our study provides deep insights into infiltrating B cells, including their phenotypes, location, antibody isotypes and interplay within the TME. Moreover, it was found that a B cell‐rich group, which was characterized by microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐H) and high tumour mutation burden (TMB‐H), as well as immunosuppressive property in particular,

Evaluation of Pediatric and Young Adult Cancer Survivors at Risk of Long‐Term Kidney Complications

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nephrotoxic chemotherapy, nephrectomy, abdominal radiotherapy exposure, and the presence of kidney or pelvic tumors are risk factors associated with long‐term kidney complications. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of long‐term kidney complications in patients who survived pediatric and young adult cancer and were exposed
