STRILL: Phase I Trial Evaluating Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) Dose Escalation for Re-Irradiation of Inoperable Peripheral Lung Lesions

Diseases
Few data are available on the role of SBRT re-irradiation for isolated recurrences. We designed a prospective phase I study to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SBRT for thoracic re-irradiation, for peripheral lung lesions.

Optimization of Replanning Processes for Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy Plans at Risk of QA Failure Predicted by a Machine Learning Model

Applied Sciences
Patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) procedures ensure the safe delivery of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans. PSQA requires extensive time and resources and may cause treatment delays if replanning is needed due to failures.
