Feasibility of Dose Escalation in Patients With Intracranial Pediatric Ependymoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Background and purpose: Pediatric ependymoma carries a dismal prognosis, mainly owing to local relapse within RT fields. The current prospective European approach is to increase the radiation dose with a sequential hypofractionated stereotactic boost. In

Tobacco Smoking, Lung Cancer, and Therapy in Iraq: Current Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2018
Tobacco smoking is a research topic of high interest to the public health in Iraq. Although Iraq is a country with a high percentage of smokers, we noticed the dearth of adequate studies and programs to deal with this problem.

Photon- and Proton-Mediated Biological Effects: What Has Been Learned?

open access: yesLife, 2022
The current understanding of the effects of radiation is gradually becoming broader. However, it still remains unclear why some patients respond to radiation with a pronounced positive response, while in some cases the disease progresses.
