Radiation Oncology Emergencies
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2006This article reviews the most common oncologic emergencies encountered by the radiation oncologist, including malignant spinal cord compression, intramedullary spinal cord metastasis, superior vena cava syndrome, hemoptysis, and airway compromise caused by tumor. Important trials evaluating different treatments for these emergencies are reviewed.

Radiosurgery has been effective in the treatment of otherwise inaccessible arteriovenous malformations. Perhaps the most exciting developments in dose optimization are in conformal radiation therapy. The use of radiation therapy and concomitant chemotherapy has been shown to improve survival in some patients with carcinoma of the anus, rectum, and head

Biomarkers in Radiation Oncology
Biomarkers in Medicine, 2008The discovery of biomarkers in patients receiving radiation therapy for cancer is occurring at an exceptional pace. There are a number of ways to conduct biomarker investigations, although the majority of clinically relevant biomarker studies have used immunohistochemistry (IHC) on tissue specimens.

Radiation may be used for the treatment of neoplastic lesions, either as a palliative measure or in an attempt at cure. Particulate or electromagnetic radiation can be obtained from a variety of machines and isotopes. Radiation therapy is the treatment of choice for certain malignancies and may be an acceptable alternative to surgery in others. Pre- or

DJ’s cancer has recurred. His stage IV lung cancer showed a promising initial response to multiagent chemotherapy, radiation therapy to a residual mediastinal mass, and stereotactic radiosurgery to 3 cerebral deposits. Now, along with a 20% weight loss, his cancer has recurred in the brain and mediastinum and he has new lesions in the liver and lung ...

Radiation oncology for the rhinologist
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2023Purpose of review This comprehensive review explores evolving treatment strategies for sinonasal and nasopharyngeal malignancies. It analyzes the role of adjuvant radiotherapy, the potential of intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT), and the relevance of de-escalation strategies nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Advances in Radiation Oncology
Annual Review of Medicine, 2006Advances in radiation oncology have been made on three major fronts: biology, physics, and clinical application. Our biological understanding of how radiation kills cells and how malignant cells avoid damage has identified new targets for therapeutic manipulation.

The Lancet, 1997Radiation therapy is commonly used in the treatment of cancer. It is the primary curative modality in about 30% of patients, and more than half of all cancer patients receive radiation therapy sometime during the course of their disease. The use of radiation began shortly after the discovery of X-rays in 1895 by Roentgen.
