The grid-dose-spreading algorithm for dose distribution calculation in heavy charged particle radiotherapy [PDF]

, 2007
A new variant of the pencil-beam (PB) algorithm for dose distribution calculation for radiotherapy with protons and heavier ions, the grid-dose spreading (GDS) algorithm, is proposed.

Patient setup optimization for external conformal radiotherapy [PDF]

Journal of Image Guided Surgery, 1995
The aim of conformal radiotherapy is to deliver precisely a specific dose of radiation to a planning target volume, concurrently radiating as little healthy tissue and organs as possible. This can be accomplished only with the accurate positioning of the patient with respect to the radiotherapy system.

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

Conformational radiotherapy of no metastatic prostate cancer: Experience of the radiation therapy department of EHS Oncology Emir Abdelkader of Oran

Journal de la Faculté de Médecine d'Oran, 2022
Introduction - Over the last decades, prostate cancer has become a public health condition, due to its frequency and severity. The conformational radiotherapy constituted today the standard technique in the irradiation of non-metastatic prostate cancers

MRI-only based radiotherapy treatment planning for the rat brain on a Small Animal Radiation Research Platform (SARRP) [PDF]

, 2015
Computed tomography (CT) is the standard imaging modality in radiation therapy treatment planning (RTP). However, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging provides superior soft tissue contrast, increasing the precision of target volume selection.

Tumor and germline testing with next generation sequencing in epithelial ovarian cancer: a prospective paired comparison using an 18‐gene panel

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Genetic testing in epithelial ovarian cancer includes both germline and tumor‐testing. This approach often duplicates resources. The current prospective study assessed the feasibility of tumor‐first multigene testing by comparing tumor tissue with germline testing of peripheral blood using an 18‐gene NGS panel in 106 patients.

A prospective, comparative analysis of acute toxicity profile between three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in locally advanced head and neck cancer patients

Cancer Treatment and Research Communications, 2020
Introduction: The advances of modern radiotherapy have emerged with the development of conformal radiotherapy techniques, such as the three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT).

Comparison of transabdominal ultrasound and electromagnetic transponders for prostate localization. [PDF]

, 2010
The aim of this study is to compare two methodologies of prostate localization in a large cohort of patients. Daily prostate localization using B-mode ultrasound has been performed at the Nebraska Medical Center since 2000.
