An X‐ray and γ‐ray combination strategy to exploit steep dose gradients for improved prostate cancer radiotherapy: A dosimetric comparison of Taichi Pro and Halcyon

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate a novel technological platform, Taichi Pro—which integrates a 6 MV flattening filterfree linear accelerator with a 18 source Rotating Gamma System (RGS) to generate steep dose gradients via multisource focused γ‐rays and noncoplanar arcs—for precision radiotherapy in prostate cancer.

Complications after late (delayed) stereotactic radiosurgery boost in patients with non-small cell lung and breast cancer

open access: yes"Radiation and Risk" Bulletin of the National Radiation and Epidemiological Registry, 2022
The purpose of the work is the assessment of the functional state and the main complications af-ter the delayed boost, depending on the level of doses used and the number of irradiated metastases. In 30 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (n=11) and breast cancer (n=19) with metastatic brain lesion after the end of WBRT, in the long term a boost ...

Segmental and Multifocal Isolated Dystonias: Similarities and Differences

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 748-756, March 2026.
Abstract Background Whether the traditional distinction between segmental and multifocal dystonia is clinically or scientifically useful remains unclear. Objective To evaluate whether idiopathic isolated adult‐onset segmental and multifocal dystonia can be differentiated based on clinical features other than the contiguity of affected body regions ...

Surgical Treatment of Tremor Syndromes: A Guide to the Clinician

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 657-667, March 2026.
Abstract Background Tremor is a common feature of multiple neurological conditions, and while medications can be effective in mild cases, surgical interventions are often required in moderate–severe syndromes or when medication side‐effects are unacceptable.

Stereotactic radiosurgery boost to the resection bed for oligometastatic brain disease: challenging the tradition of adjuvant whole-brain radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesNeurosurgical Focus, 2009
Object Whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) has been the traditional approach to minimize the risk of intracranial recurrence following resection of brain metastases, despite its potential for late neurotoxicity. In 2007, the authors demonstrated an equivalent local recurrence rate to WBRT by using stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to the operative bed,

Advances and Prospects of Stereotactic Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy: Evolving Paradigms in Precision Oncology

open access: yesMed Research, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 157-180, March 2026.
The graphical abstract outlines the progressive development and impact of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Technological Evolution illustrates the transition from brachytherapy with single‐dose, LDR/HDR schedules to fractionated radiotherapy, three‐dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and Gamma Knife ...

A phase II multi-institutional study assessing simultaneous in-field boost helical tomotherapy for 1-3 brain metastases

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2012
Background Our research group has previously published a dosimetric planning study that demonstrated that a 60 Gy/10 fractions intralesional boost with whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) to 30 Gy/10 fractions was biologically equivalent with a stereotactic ...

Brain Dose–Volume Thresholds and Survival in Dogs With Intracranial Tumours Treated With the 10 × 4 Gy Radiotherapy Schedule: A Combined Analysis of Two Trials

open access: yesVeterinary and Comparative Oncology, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 177-185, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Dogs with intracranial tumours routinely receive radiotherapy, yet species‐specific dose–volume constraints for normal brain tissue remain undefined. In human radiation oncology, exceeding certain brain dose–volume thresholds markedly increases the risk of radiation‐induced injury (e.g., radionecrosis).

Management of breast cancer brain metastases: Focus on human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive breast cancer

open access: yesChronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, 2017
After the introduction of trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody that binds to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), the overall survival (OS) among patients with HER2-positive breast cancer has been substantially improved.
