Single isocenter stereotactic radiosurgery for patients with multiple brain metastases: dosimetric comparison of VMAT and a dedicated DCAT planning tool

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2019
In this dosimetric study, a dedicated planning tool for single isocenter stereotactic radiosurgery for multiple brain metastases using dynamic conformal arc therapy (DCAT) was compared to standard volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT).

A feasibility study of functional preservation in craniospinal irradiation with photon for pediatric medulloblastoma

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Craniospinal irradiation (CSI) is essential for treating pediatric medulloblastoma (MB) but causes significant long‐term toxicities. Existing dose‐reduction or partial‐sparing strategies improve neurocognitive outcomes but may compromise survival or fail to address other late effects.

Photobiomodulation and Radio‐Epithelitis in Anal Carcinoma: A Case‐Report and Clinical Reflection on Emerging Preventive and Supportive Care Modalities

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Radio‐induced dermatitis, a frequent adverse effect of radiation therapy, is particularly prevalent in patients treated for anal margin carcinoma. It may present with varying severity, causing significant pain and impairment of daily mobility, influenced by both patient‐related factors and treatment regimens.

VMAT optimization with dynamic collimator rotation

open access: yesMedical Physics, 2018
PurposeAlthough collimator rotation is an optimization variable that can be exploited for dosimetric advantages, existing Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) optimization uses a fixed collimator angle in each arc and only rotates the collimator between arcs.

Longitudinal Patterns of Radiation‐Associated Dysphagia in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer: A Systematic Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 597-623, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the diagnostic profile of early (i.e., < 6 months of treatment) and late (i.e., ≥ 6 months of treatment) radiation‐associated dysphagia (RAD) in patients with head and neck cancer. Materials and Methods The literature was queried from inception to July 19, 2024.

The prognostic value of cell‐free DNA dynamics during chemoradiotherapy in squamous cell carcinomas of the anus

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 3, Page 790-798, 1 February 2026.
What's new? Chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA). Toxicities linked to chemoradiotherapy, however, can negatively impact the quality of life, and biomarkers to distinguish which patients will benefit from treatment are lacking.
