Accelerated hypofractionated radiotherapy schedules in breast cancer: A review of the current literature
(2009)Lumpectomy followed by breast irradiation is an alternative to mastectomy for patients with early-stage breast cancer. The purpose of radiation treatment following lumpectomy is to minimize the risk of recurrent cancer in ... -
Clinical validation of the LKB model and parameter sets for predicting radiation-induced pneumonitis from breast cancer radiotherapy
(2006)The choice of the appropriate model and parameter set in determining the relation between the incidence of radiation pneumonitis and dose distribution in the lung is of great importance, especially in the case of breast ... -
Flash proton radiotherapy spares normal epithelial and mesenchymal tissues while preserving sarcoma response
(2021)In studies of electron and proton radiotherapy, ultrahigh dose rates of FLASH radiotherapy appear to produce fewer toxicities than standard dose rates while maintaining local tumor control. FLASHproton radiotherapy (F-PRT) ... -
High resolution computed tomography findings on the lung of early breast-cancer patients treated by postoperative breast irradiation with a hypofractionated radiotherapy schedule
(2005)BACKGROUND: Hypofractionated breast radiotherapy (RT), although convenient for patients and health care systems, could have a negative impact on normal tissues such as lung. AIM: To evaluate radiation-induced lung toxicity ... -
An inhomogeneity correction algorithm for irregular fields of high-energy photon beams based on Clarkson integration and the 3D beam subtraction method
(2006)A number of treatment-planning systems still use conventional correction methods for body inhomogeneities. Most of these methods (power law method, tissue-air ratio (TAR), etc.) consider only on-axis points, rectangular ... -
Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) in head and neck cancer: A systematic review
(2016)Background: Multimodality therapy constitutes the standard treatment of advanced and recurrent head and neck cancer. Since locoregional recurrence comprises a major obstacle in attaining cure, the role of intraoperative ... -
Is locally advanced head-neck cancer one more candidate for accelerated hypofractionation?
(2021)Background/Aim: Hypofractionated accelerated radiotherapy (HypoAR) is widely applied for the treatment of early laryngeal cancer. Its role in locally advanced head-neck cancer (LA-HNC) is unexplored. Patients and Methods: ... -
Oligometastasis and local ablation in the era of systemic targeted and immunotherapy
(2020)Background: During these last years, new agents have dramatically improved the survival of the metastatic patients. Oligometastases represent a continuous field of interest in which the integration of metastases-directed ... -
Primary extramammary invasive Paget's vulvar disease: What is the standard, what are the challenges and what is the future for radiotherapy?
(2016)Background: Primary invasive Extramammary Paget's vulvar disease is a rare tumor that is challenging to control. Wide surgical excision represents the standard treatment approach for Primary invasive Extramammary Paget's ...
