Intrafraction motion and impact of margin reduction for MR‐Linac online adaptive radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer treatments

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 17-24, March 2025.
This analysis included quantification of intrafraction motion in pancreas stereotactic ablative radiotherapy treated on the MR‐Linac, leading to the development of adjusted (PTV) margins. Intrafraction motion indicated an average target displacement of 1–3 mm, resulting in an adjusted PTV margin of 2 mm in the right–left and superior–inferior ...

Successful treatment of vertically acquired Hepatitis C in a child using direct‐acting antiviral therapy administered via gastrojejunal tube: A case report

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a significant global health burden, with vertical transmission being the primary route of infection in children. Direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs) have transformed HCV treatment in pediatrics, but limited data exist on their administration in medically complex children who are dependent on enteral tubes. We report
