Nurse Navigation on Time to Postoperative Radiation Therapy after Transoral Robotic Surgery for Oropharyngeal Carcinoma

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) initiation within 6 weeks of surgery is associated with improved oncologic outcomes in head and neck cancer, but delays remain common. Oncology nurse navigators (ONN) may improve care coordination.

Potential benefit of scanned proton beam versus photons as adjuvant radiation therapy in breast cancer

, 2015
Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of using scanned proton beams as adjuvant radiation therapy for breast cancer. Long-term cardiopulmonary complications may worsen the quality of life and reduce the positive contribution of radiation therapy, which

Dynamic profiles of early biological responses to predict the treatment efficacy of proton therapy in liver cancer assessed with in vivo kinetic [18F]-FDG PET/MRI

Radiation Oncology
Background Proton beam therapy is an advanced treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. However, evaluating the response to treatment with tumor size alone is insufficient.

Range-compensated pencil beam scanning proton Arc therapy: a feasibility study

Communications Engineering
Proton arc therapy is a conceptual treatment technique in proton therapy that delivers a scanned proton pencil beam simultaneously as the gantry is rotated around the patient, exploiting the geometric advantages of a continuous arc with the dosimetric ...
