Intensity-modulated proton therapy vs intensity-modulated radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a case–control studyResearch in context [PDF]

The Lancet Regional Health. Americas
Summary: Background: Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) is associated with fewer acute toxicities compared with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in definitive treatment of nonmetastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Effect of intensity-modulated radiation therapy on sciatic nerve injury caused by echinococcosis

Neural Regeneration Research, 2021
Conventional radiotherapy has a good killing effect on femoral echinococcosis. However, the sciatic nerve around the lesion is irreversibly damaged owing to bystander effects.

Radiotherapy in the Management of Pediatric and Adult Osteosarcomas: A Multi-Institutional Cohort Analysis

Cells, 2021
Background: Due to the rarity of osteosarcoma and limited indications for radiotherapy (RT), data on RT for this tumor are scarce. This study aimed to investigate the utilization of RT for osteosarcomas in the recent 20 years and to identify factors ...

Comparison of patient specific quality assurance tests done with using different dosimetric systems for intensity modulated radiotherapy treatment plans

Medicine Science, 2019
Intensity modulated radiotherapy is the developed technique of 3 dimensional conformal radiation therapy. In this method, irradiated fields can be seperated into many subfields that are called segments.
