Detection of avascular necrosis on routine diffusion-weighted whole body MRI in patients with multiple myeloma.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2019-01-01)
OBJECTIVE: Current therapies for multiple myeloma, which include corticosteroids, increase risk of avascular necrosis. The aim of this study was to assess incidental detection of femoral head avascular necrosis on routine ...
Resolving genetic heterogeneity in cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-07-01)
To a large extent, cancer conforms to evolutionary rules defined by the rates at which clones mutate, adapt and grow. Next-generation sequencing has provided a snapshot of the genetic landscape of most cancer types, and ...
Realizing the potential of magnetic resonance image guided radiotherapy in gynaecological and rectal cancer.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2019-05-14)
CT-based radiotherapy workflow is limited by poor soft tissue definition in the pelvis and reliance on rigid registration methods. Current image-guided radiotherapy and adaptive radiotherapy models therefore have limited ...
Urine-derived lymphocytes as a non-invasive measure of the bladder tumor immune microenvironment.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2018-11-05)
Despite the advances in cancer immunotherapy, only a fraction of patients with bladder cancer exhibit responses to checkpoint blockade, highlighting a need to better understand drug resistance and identify rational ...
Dosimetry and Gastrointestinal Toxicity Relationships in a Phase II Trial of Pelvic Lymph Node Radiotherapy in Advanced Localised Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2019-06-01)
AIMS: Pelvic lymph node (PLN) radiotherapy for high-risk prostate cancer is limited by late gastrointestinal toxicity. Application of rectal and bowel constraints may reduce risks of side-effects. We evaluated associations ...
In-vivo EPID dosimetry for IMRT and VMAT based on through-air predicted portal dose algorithm.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-08-01)
We have adapted the methodology of Berry et al. (2012) for Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) treatments at a fixed source to imager distance (SID) based on the manufacturer's ...
Plane wave versus focused transmissions for contrast enhanced ultrasound imaging: the role of parameter settings and the effects of flow rate on contrast measurements.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2019-04-23)
Contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and dynamic contrast enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US) can be used to provide information about the vasculature aiding diagnosis and monitoring of a number of pathologies including cancer. ...
Improving fiducial and prostate capsule visualization for radiotherapy planning using MRI.
(WILEY, 2019-03-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intraprostatic fiducial markers (FM) improve the accuracy of radiotherapy (RT) delivery. Here we assess geometric integrity and contouring consistency using a T2*-weighted (T2*W) sequence alone, ...
Achieving In Vivo Target Depletion through the Discovery and Optimization of Benzimidazolone BCL6 Degraders.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2020-04-23)
Deregulation of the transcriptional repressor BCL6 enables tumorigenesis of germinal center B-cells, and hence BCL6 has been proposed as a therapeutic target for the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). ...
Single-cell transcriptomics identifies an effectorness gradient shaping the response of CD4+ T cells to cytokines.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-04-14)
Naïve CD4+ T cells coordinate the immune response by acquiring an effector phenotype in response to cytokines. However, the cytokine responses in memory T cells remain largely understudied. Here we use quantitative proteomics, ...
