Real-time 4D dose reconstruction for tracked dynamic MLC deliveries for lung SBRT.
(WILEY, 2016-11-01)
PURPOSE: This study provides a proof of concept for real-time 4D dose reconstruction for lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with multileaf collimator (MLC) tracking and assesses the impact of tumor tracking ...
MRI-guided lung SBRT: Present and future developments.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017-12-01)
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is rapidly becoming an alternative to surgery for the treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients. Lung SBRT is administered in a hypo-fractionated, conformal manner, ...
Association between Adult Height and Risk of Colorectal, Lung, and Prostate Cancer: Results from Meta-analyses of Prospective Studies and Mendelian Randomization Analyses.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2016-09-06)
BACKGROUND: Observational studies examining associations between adult height and risk of colorectal, prostate, and lung cancers have generated mixed results. We conducted meta-analyses using data from prospective cohort ...
Dicentric Dose Estimates for Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy in the RTGene Study to Assess Blood Dosimetric Models and the New Bayesian Method for Gradient Exposure.
(RADIATION RESEARCH SOC, 2018-09-20)
The RTGene study was focused on the development and validation of new transcriptional biomarkers for prediction of individual radiotherapy patient responses to ionizing radiation. In parallel, for validation purposes, this ...
Practice-changing radiation therapy trials for the treatment of cancer: where are we 150 years after the birth of Marie Curie?
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-14)
As we mark 150 years since the birth of Marie Curie, we reflect on the global advances made in radiation oncology and the current status of radiation therapy (RT) research. Large-scale international RT clinical trials have ...
Motion monitoring during a course of lung radiotherapy with anchored electromagnetic transponders : Quantification of inter- and intrafraction motion and variability of relative transponder positions.
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2017-10-01)
PURPOSE: Anchored electromagnetic transponders for tumor motion monitoring during lung radiotherapy were clinically evaluated. First, intrafractional motion patterns were analyzed as well as their interfractional variations. ...
Diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI in lung cancers: ADC test-retest repeatability.
(SPRINGER, 2017-11-01)
PURPOSE: To determine the test-retest repeatability of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) measurements across institutions and MRI vendors, plus investigate the effect of post-processing methodology on measurement ...
A radiomics-based decision support tool improves lung cancer diagnosis in combination with the Herder score in large lung nodules.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Large lung nodules (≥15 mm) have the highest risk of malignancy, and may exhibit important differences in phenotypic or clinical characteristics to their smaller counterparts. Existing risk models do not stratify ...
Tumour auto-contouring on 2d cine MRI for locally advanced lung cancer: A comparative study.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2017-12-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Radiotherapy guidance based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is currently becoming a clinical reality. Fast 2d cine MRI sequences are expected to increase the precision of radiation delivery by ...
Stability of radiomics features in apparent diffusion coefficient maps from a multi-centre test-retest trial.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-03-18)
Quantitative radiomics features, extracted from medical images, characterize tumour-phenotypes and have been shown to provide prognostic value in predicting clinical outcomes. Stability of radiomics features extracted from ...
