The Automated Bone Scan Index as a Predictor of Response to Prostate Radiotherapy in Men with Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Prostate Cancer: An Exploratory Analysis of STAMPEDE's "M1|RT Comparison".
(ELSEVIER, 2020-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Prostate radiotherapy (RT) is a first-line option for newly diagnosed men with low-burden metastatic prostate cancer. The current criterion to define this clinical state is based on manual bone metastasis counts, ...
Inflammatory microenvironment remodelling by tumour cells after radiotherapy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-04-01)
The development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is revolutionizing the way we think about cancer treatment. Even so, for most types of cancer, only a minority of patients currently benefit from ICI therapies. Intrinsic ...
Thiol-Reactive PODS-Bearing Bifunctional Chelators for the Development of EGFR-Targeting [18F]AlF-Affibody Conjugates.
(MDPI, 2020-03-29)
Site-selective bioconjugation of cysteine-containing peptides and proteins is currently achieved via a maleimide-thiol reaction (Michael addition). When maleimide-functionalized chelators are used and the resulting ...
Estimating brain volume loss after radiation therapy in children treated for posterior fossa tumors (Corpus callosum and whole brain volume changes following radiotherapy in children).
(WROCLAW MEDICAL UNIV, 2020-03-01)
BACKGROUND: More than half of pediatric tumors of central nervous system (CNS) primarily originate in the posterior fossa and are conventionally treated with radiation therapy (RT). OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study ...
Visualizing the autonomic and somatic innervation of the female pelvis with 3D MR neurography: a feasibility study.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of female pelvic malignancies often causes pelvic nerve damage. Magnetic resonance (MR) neurography mapping the female pelvic innervation could aid in treatment planning. PURPOSE: To depict female ...
Alanine dosimetry in strong magnetic fields: use as a transfer standard in MRI-guided radiotherapy.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2020-06-03)
Reference dosimetry in the presence of a strong magnetic field is challenging. Ionisation chambers have shown to be strongly affected by magnetic fields. There is a need for robust and stable detectors in MRI-guided ...
Protocol for hypofractionated adaptive radiotherapy to the bladder within a multicentre phase II randomised trial: radiotherapy planning and delivery guidance.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-05-26)
INTRODUCTION: Patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who are unfit and unsuitable for standard radical treatment with cystectomy or daily radiotherapy present a large unmet clinical need. Untreated, they suffer ...
RIPK1-mediated immunogenic cell death promotes anti-tumour immunity against soft-tissue sarcoma.
(WILEY, 2020-06-08)
Drugs that mobilise the immune system against cancer are dramatically improving care for many people. Dying cancer cells play an active role in inducing anti-tumour immunity but not every form of death can elicit an immune ...
Noise-Corrected, Exponentially Weighted, Diffusion-Weighted MRI (niceDWI) Improves Image Signal Uniformity in Whole-Body Imaging of Metastatic Prostate Cancer.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2020-05-08)
Purpose: To characterize the voxel-wise uncertainties of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) estimation from whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging (WBDWI). This enables the calculation of a new parametric map based on ...
Quantitative Dual-Isotope Planar Imaging of Thorium-227 and Radium-223 Using Defined Energy Windows.
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2020-09-01)
Introduction: Thorium-227 is an alpha-emitting radioisotope with potential therapeutic applications in targeted alpha therapy. Thorium-227 decays to Radium-223, which may have an independent biodistribution to that of the ...
