Xeroradiography in Radiation Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesActa Radiologica: Therapy, Physics, Biology, 1977
The xerographic technique has been introduced at Radiumhemmet for direct field control in therapy with high energy photon radiation (60Co-unit, 6 MV linear accelerator and 42 MeV betatron). The xerograms are of a sufficiently good quality for this purpose.

Targeting the neural stem cells in subventricular zone for the treatment of glioblastoma: an update from preclinical evidence to clinical interventions

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2023
Background Glioblastoma is one of the most common and aggressive adult brain tumors. The conventional treatment strategy, surgery combined with chemoradiotherapy, did not change the fact that the recurrence rate was high and the survival rate was low ...

Local treatment failure after globe-conserving therapy for choroidal melanoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Local treatment failure after globe-conserving therapy for choroidal melanoma is a surgical complication with significant morbidity to the vision and eye. Few reports in the literature have addressed this complication exclusively.

Using adaptive magnetic resonance image‐guided radiation therapy for treatment of inoperable pancreatic cancer

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2019
Adaptive magnetic resonance imaging‐guided radiation therapy (MRgRT) can escalate dose to tumors while minimizing dose to normal tissue. We evaluated outcomes of inoperable pancreatic cancer patients treated using MRgRT with and without dose escalation.
