Delineation of organs at risk and volumes of interest plays a crucial role in the radiation therapy chain. The process should be aligned with technological and clinical treatment approaches for optimal personalized care. Organs at risk contouring is part of the planning stage, after the initial simulation process, where volumetric CT imaging takes ...

Irradiating Residual Disease to 30 Gy with Proton Therapy in Pediatric Mediastinal Hodgkin Lymphoma [PDF]
Background: Local relapse is a predominant form of recurrence among pediatric patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (PHL). Although PHL radiotherapy doses have been approximately 20 Gy, adults with Hodgkin lymphoma receiving 30 to 36 Gy experience fewer in ...

Neurocognition and mean radiotherapy dose to vulnerable brain structures: new organs at risk?
Background Children with brain tumors are at high risk of neurocognitive decline after radiotherapy (RT). However, there is a lack of studies on how RT doses to organs at risk (OARs) impacts neurocognition.
