Development and results of a patient-reported treatment experience questionnaire on a 1.5 T MR-Linac.
Barnes, H; Alexander, S; Bower, L; Ehlers, J; Gani, C; et al. (ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2021-09-01)INTRODUCTION: With the implementation of new radiotherapy technology, it is imperative that patient experience is investigated alongside efficacy and outcomes. This paper presents the development of a specifically designed ... -
Evaluation of a urology specialist therapeutic radiographer implemented radiotherapy pathway for prostate cancer patients.
Alexander, SE; Booth, L; Delacroix, L; Gordon, A; Kirkpatrick, N; et al. (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-04-15)INTRODUCTION: The role of the Urology Specialist Therapeutic Radiographer (USTR) was introduced to support a busy NHS uro-oncology practice. Key objectives were to improve patient preparedness for and experience of ... -
Evaluation of non-vendor magnetic resonance imaging sequences for use in bladder cancer magnetic resonance image guided radiotherapy.
Chick, J; Alexander, S; Herbert, T; Huddart, R; Ingle, M; et al. (ELSEVIER, 2023-07-01)Hybrid systems that combine Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and linear accelerators are available clinically to guide and adapt radiotherapy. Vendor-approved MRI sequences are provided, however alternative sequences may ... -
GI factors, potential to predict prostate motion during radiotherapy; a scoping review.
Alexander, SE; Oelfke, U; McNair, HA; Tree, AC (ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2023-05-01)PURPOSE: A scoping literature review was conducted to identify gastrointestinal (GI) factors most likely to influence prostate motion during radiotherapy. We proffer that patient specific measurement of these GI factors ... -
National survey of fiducial marker insertion for prostate image guided radiotherapy.
Alexander, SE; Kinsella, J; McNair, HA; Tree, AC (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-11-01)INTRODUCTION: In the United Kingdom fiducial marker IGRT is the second most common verification method employed in radical prostate radiotherapy yet little evidence exists to support centres introducing or developing this ... -
Prostate Volume Changes during Extreme and Moderately Hypofractionated Magnetic Resonance Image-guided Radiotherapy.
Alexander, SE; McNair, HA; Oelfke, U; Huddart, R; Murray, J; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2022-04-22)AIMS: Prostate morphological changes during external beam radiotherapy are poorly understood. Excellent soft-tissue visualisation offered by magnetic resonance image-guided radiotherapy (MRIgRT) provides an opportunity to ... -
RTT-led IGRT for cervix cancer; training, implementation and validation.
Alexander, SE; Hopkins, N; Lalondrelle, S; Taylor, A; Titmarsh, K; et al. (Elsevier BV, 2019-12-16)INTRODUCTION: IGRT in cervical cancer treatment delivery is complex due to significant target and organs at risk (OAR) motion. Implementing image assessment of soft-tissue target and OAR position to improve accuracy is ...
