National survey of fiducial marker insertion for prostate image guided radiotherapy.
(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 ... -
Natural Selection in Cancer Biology: From Molecular Snowflakes to Trait Hallmarks
(2017-02)Evolution by natural selection is the conceptual foundation for nearly every branch of biology and increasingly also for biomedicine and medical research. In cancer biology, evolution explains how populations of cells in ... -
Negative selection in tumor genome evolution acts on essential cellular functions and the immunopeptidome.
(BMC, 2018-05-31)BACKGROUND: Natural selection shapes cancer genomes. Previous studies used signatures of positive selection to identify genes driving malignant transformation. However, the contribution of negative selection against somatic ... -
