Evaluation of NTCP and Second Cancer Induction from Modulated Arc Therapy for High-Risk Prostate Carcinoma by COUPÔLE Software [PDF]
Introduction: Assessing the toxicity and the risk of radiation-induced secondary cancer is crucial for optimizing treatment planning in prostate carcinoma patients with high risk undergoing Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT).

ABSTRACT Background Further work is needed to improve treatment outcomes for prostate cancer (PCa), with the repurposing of the α1‐adrenoreceptor antagonists presenting a potential solution. This feasibility clinical trial presents the first prospective data of the use of an α1‐adrenoreceptor antagonist in men undergoing radiotherapy for PCa.

Differential regulation of the Drosophila sleep homeostat by circadian and arousal inputs. [PDF]
One output arm of the sleep homeostat in Drosophila appears to be a group of neurons with projections to the dorsal fan-shaped body (dFB neurons) of the central complex in the brain.

ABSTRACT Background Unfavorable intermediate‐risk prostate cancer (UIR‐PCa) represents a biologically heterogeneous subgroup with a higher risk of recurrence compared with favorable intermediate‐risk disease. Contemporary management frequently includes dose‐escalated radiotherapy (RT) combined with short‐term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Whether

Searching standard parameters for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) of prostate cancer [PDF]
Background Since December 2009 a new VMAT planning system tool is available in Oncentra® MasterPlan v3.3 (Nucletron B.V.). The purpose of this study was to work out standard parameters for the optimization of prostate cancer.

Following maximal surgery when feasible, management of adult patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)‐mutant glioma is complex and should be considered in a neuro‐oncology multidisciplinary context balancing disease control versus potential treatment‐associated toxicities. Options include continued surveillance, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and/

Abstract Purpose/objectives Collision avoidance is critical in external beam radiotherapy to ensure patient safety and plan deliverability. Limited understanding of the collision‐free treatment space risks both patient safety and unnecessary exclusion of useful beams—particularly in noncoplanar setups—resulting in suboptimal plans. Conventional methods

We analyse the "Einstein box" thought experiment and the definition of the momentum of light inside matter. We stress the importance of the total energy-momentum tensor of the closed system (electromagnetic field plus material medium) and derive in ...
