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

open access: yesJournal 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

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Intrafraction motion and impact of margin reduction for MR‐Linac online adaptive radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer treatments

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 17-24, March 2025.
This analysis included quantification of intrafraction motion in pancreas stereotactic ablative radiotherapy treated on the MR‐Linac, leading to the development of adjusted (PTV) margins. Intrafraction motion indicated an average target displacement of 1–3 mm, resulting in an adjusted PTV margin of 2 mm in the right–left and superior–inferior ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Boost Approaches in Patients Undergoing Postoperative Radiotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of breast conservation surgery for early‐stage breast cancer is common, and adjuvant radiotherapy is often recommended to reduce the risk of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence. Historical trials have used sequential boost techniques with favorable outcomes with reduction in local recurrence and acceptable cosmetic outcomes.
