Pelvic insufficiency fractures, dose volume parameters and plan optimization after radiotherapy for rectal cancer

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology, 2019
Pelvic insufficiency fractures (PIF) is a known but under-acknowledged late effect of pelvic radiotherapy. In rectal cancer, studies describing incidence of PIF and relation to dose volume relationships are lacking.

Autonomous Reconfigurable Modular Conductive Hydrogels for Adaptive and Degradable Bioelectronic Interfaces

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Bridging rigid electrodes with soft, irregular tissues demands more than conductivity alone. Modular conductive hydrogels autonomously reconfigure into conformal electrode‐tissue interfaces, coupling mixed ionic‐electronic conduction with tissue‐like mechanics, self‐healing, and degradability.
