Radiation biology - An important science for an advanced nuclear nation like South Africa

South African Journal of Science, 2012
The sustainability of radiation biology (radiobiology) is under threat in South Africa because of underdevelopment in the discipline, despite the fact that South Africa has been a user of radiation since radioactivity and X-rays were discovered.

AAPM Medical Physics Practice Guideline 18.a: Superficial radiation therapy using low‐energy kilovoltage x‐rays

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Superficial radiation therapy (SRT), utilizing low‐energy kilovoltage (kV) x‐rays typically in the 50–100 kVp range, is a well‐established modality in dermatology and radiation oncology clinics for the management of non‐melanoma skin cancer and various benign dermatological conditions.

The Importance of Dosimetry Standardization in Radiobiology

, 2013
Radiation dose is central to much of radiobiological research. Precision and accuracy of dose measurements and reporting of the measurement details should be sufficient to allow the work to be interpreted and repeated and to allow valid comparisons to be

Space Radiation: The Number One Risk to Astronaut Health beyond Low Earth Orbit

Life, 2014
Projecting a vision for space radiobiological research necessitates understanding the nature of the space radiation environment and how radiation risks influence mission planning, timelines and operational decisions. Exposure to space radiation increases

Current and Future Perspectives of the Use of Organoids in Radiobiology

Cells, 2020
The majority of cancer patients will be treated with radiotherapy, either alone or together with chemotherapy and/or surgery. Optimising the balance between tumour control and the probability of normal tissue side effects is the primary goal of radiation

MGP_HNSC32: A H&E Morphology‐Derived 32‐Gene Prognostic Signature in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) exhibits substantial molecular and morphological heterogeneity, yet current morphology‐based prognostic models often lack biological interpretability. We developed a transformer‐based computational framework (CTransPath) to virtually predict gene expression directly from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E ...

Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy for lung cancer: Correlation between dose and volume

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background In lung cancer radiotherapy, the volume of the lung receiving a dose above 20 Gy (V20Gy) and the mean lung dose are widely recognized dosimetric indicators for predicting radiation pneumonitis. However, there is currently no unified model to predict the minimum achievable values of V20Gy and mean lung dose.

Rationale for the Use of Radiation-Activated Mesenchymal Stromal/Stem Cells in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Cells, 2020
We have previously shown that the combination of radiotherapy with human umbilical-cord-derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) cell therapy significantly reduces the size of the xenotumors in mice, both in the directly irradiated tumor and in the ...
