Recent advances and clinical applications of 3D printing for female reproductive organ regeneration and gynecological disease

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This comprehensive review highlights the transformative role of 3D printing and bioprinting technologies in the regeneration of female reproductive organs and the treatment of gynecological diseases. Unlike previous overviews that focus narrowly on isolated applications, this work provides an integrative analysis of recent clinical and preclinical ...

Comparative Evaluation of Four Stereotactic Radiosurgery Planning Approaches for Treatment of Posterior Choroidal Melanoma

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluated four stereotactic radiosurgery planning approaches for posterior choroidal melanoma (CM). Analysis of thirteen CM cases resulted in a clinically meaningful reduction in dose to the brain for Brainlab Elements modulated arcs (BE) and Varian Eclipse HyperArc modulated arcs (HA) compared to Brainlab iPlan dynamic conformal arc therapy

MIBG Therapy for Neuroblastoma: Precision Achieved With Dosimetry, and Concern for False Responders

Frontiers in Medicine, 2020
Neuroblastoma causes 15% of cancer mortality in children. High risk neuroblastoma has poor prognosis, with high relapse rate and mortality despite multimodal treatment.

Mapping the Landscape of Over‐Scanning in CT Imaging: A Scoping Review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Over‐scanning in CT is highly prevalent and contributes to unnecessary radiation exposure, with notable impact on radiosensitive organs. Standardised protocols and AI‐assisted planning show strong potential to optimise scan range and reduce excess dose.

Prone Breast Radiotherapy on the MR‐Linac: A Technical Note on Skin‐Couch Contact Dose Effects

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This retrospective planning study evaluated the dosimetric effects of skin‐couch contact during prone APBI on a 1.5 T MR‐Linac by comparing treatment plans calculated with and without a magnetic field. While the presence of the magnetic field increased overall superficial skin dose, it consistently reduced dose at the skin‐couch contact region ...

Evaluation of biokinetics and dosimetry in [131I]-NaI therapies: whole-body images quantification versus lower limb region

Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2020
Introduction: Radioiodine therapy with iodine-131 (131I) is the most commonly performed radionuclide therapy in Nuclear Medicine[1]. When used in the treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), it consists in the administration of a quantity of ...

Size‐specific dose estimates calculated using patient size measurements from scanned projection radiograph in high‐resolution chest computed tomography

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 85-92, March 2025.
This study established that patient's lateral width measurements made from scanned projection radiograph (SPR) is an overestimate compared to those measured from tomographic slices by about 10%. Size‐specific dose estimates (SSDE) calculated using lateral width measured from SPR correlates well with SSDE calculated using water equivalent diameter of ...
