Effect of replanning boost radiotherapy plan in locally advanced unresectable middle to lower thoracic esophageal cancer

Scientific Reports
Thoracic bulky esophageal cancer shrinks during radiotherapy, changing the location and shape of the surrounding heart and lungs. The current study aimed to explore how replanning by volumetric-modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) and three-dimensional ...

Timing for Radiotherapy Initiation After Dental Extraction and Risk of Osteoradionecrosis in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are advised to undergo dental extraction of teeth with poor prognosis prior to radiotherapy (RT) initiation to prevent osteoradionecrosis (ORN). However, insufficient healing time may result in persistent extraction wounds during RT, which constitute a potential risk factor for ORN, whereas ...

Treatment patterns and outcomes in perineal primary vulvar cancer—a population‐based Swedish cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Perineal vulvar squamous cell carcinoma was identified in 147 of 571 cases. Owing to the anatomical proximity of these tumors to the anus, treatment selection may present considerable clinical challenges. The majority of patients (53%) underwent surgical treatment alone, whereas 23% received surgery combined with adjuvant radiotherapy and 24% were ...

Random and systematic set-up errors in three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy – impact on planning target volume margins: the experience of the Radiation Oncology Centre of Sassari

, 2013
Purpose: Geometric uncertainties limit the accuracy of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy treatments. This study aims to evaluate typical random and systematic set-up errors and analyse the impact of no action level (NAL) correction protocol on ...
