Influence of daily imaging on plan quality and normal tissue toxicity for prostate cancer radiotherapyRadiation Oncology - Tập 12 - Trang 1-11 - 2017
Katharina Bell, Marina Heitfeld, Norbert Licht, Christian Rübe, Yvonne Dzierma
Modern radiotherapy offers various possibilities for image guided verification
of patient positioning. Different clinically relevant IGRT (image guided
radiotherapy) scenarios were considered with regard to their influence on
dosimetric plan quality and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP). This
study is based on treatment plans of 50 prostate patients. We evaluate the

Intrafractional dose variation and beam configuration in carbon ion radiotherapy for esophageal cancerRadiation Oncology - Tập 11 - Trang 1-9 - 2016

In carbon ion radiotherapy (CIR) for esophageal cancer, organ and target motion
is a major challenge for treatment planning due to potential range deviations.
This study intends to analyze the impact of intrafractional variations on
dosimetric parameters and to identify favourable settings for robust treatment
plans. We contoured esophageal boost volumes in different organ localizations
for four p... hiện toàn bộ
A treatment planning study of proton arc therapy for para-aortic lymph node tumors: dosimetric evaluation of conventional proton therapy, proton arc therapy, and intensity modulated radiotherapyRadiation Oncology - Tập 11 - Trang 1-10 - 2016

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosimetric benefits of a proton arc
technique for treating tumors of the para-aortic lymph nodes (PALN). In nine
patients, a proton arc therapy (PAT) technique was compared with intensity
modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and proton beam therapy (PBT) techniques with
respect to the planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OAR). PTV
coverage, co... hiện toàn bộ
mARC vs. IMRT radiotherapy of the prostate with flat and flattening-filter-free beam energiesRadiation Oncology - Tập 9 - Trang 1-8 - 2014
Yvonne Dzierma, Katharina Bell, Jan Palm, Frank Nuesken, Norbert Licht, Christian Rübe
There as yet exists no systematic planning study investigating the novel mARC
rotational radiotherapy technique, which is conceptually different from VMAT. We
therefore present a planning study for prostate cancer, comparing mARC with IMRT
treatment at the same linear accelerator equipped with flat and
flattening-filter-free (FFF) photon energies. We retrospectively re-contoured
and re-planned tre... hiện toàn bộ
Comparisons of different neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimens with or without stereotactic body radiation therapy for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer: study protocol of a prospective, randomized phase II trial (BRPCNCC-1)Radiation Oncology - Tập 14 - Trang 1-8 - 2019
Suizhi Gao, Xiaofei Zhu, Xiaohan Shi, Kai Cao, Yun Bian, Hui Jiang, Kaixuan Wang, Shiwei Guo, Huojun Zhang, Gang Jin
Few patients with pancreatic cancer may be candidates for immediate surgical
resection at the initial diagnosis. Even if patients with borderline resectable
pancreatic cancer (BRPC), micrometastases may occur before surgery. Therefore,
neoadjuvant therapy is vital for improved survival, which has been confirmed in
previous studies that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy
provides... hiện toàn bộ
Regression models for predicting physical and EQD2 plan parameters of two methods of hybrid planning for stage III NSCLCRadiation Oncology - Tập 16 - Trang 1-13 - 2021

To establish regression models of physical and equivalent dose in 2 Gy per
fraction (EQD2) plan parameters of two kinds of hybrid planning for stage III
NSCLC. Two kinds of hybrid plans named conventional fraction radiotherapy &
stereotactic body radiotherapy (C&S) and conventional fraction radiotherapy &
simultaneous integrated boost (C&SIB) were retrospectively made for 20 patients

MiR-34a is up-regulated in response to low dose, low energy X-ray induced DNA damage in breast cellsRadiation Oncology - - 2013

MicroRNAs are non-coding RNAs involved in the regulation of gene expression
including DNA damage responses. Low doses of low energy X-ray radiation, similar
to those used in mammographic exams, has been described to be genotoxic. In the
present work we investigated the expression of miR-34a; a well described
p53-regulated miRNA implicated in cell responses to X-ray irradiation at low
doses. Non-ca... hiện toàn bộ
