Comparison of Auto‐Contouring Tools for Delineation of Normal Organs at Risk in Paediatric Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Contouring organs at risk (OARs) manually in paediatric patients undergoing cranial‐spinal radiation therapy (CSI) is a time‐consuming, labour‐intensive task. This study aims to assess the accuracy and clinical acceptability of auto‐contours produced by the Siemens DirectORGANS auto‐contouring software on paediatric patients receiving CSI treatment ...

The Sooner, the Better: Neuroprotective Strategies in Fetuses With Congenital Heart Disease

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent congenital malformation at birth and is associated with neurodevelopmental impairments. Alterations in cardiovascular physiology can lead to reduced cerebral blood perfusion and oxygenation, which negatively affects brain growth and maturation.
