Predicting cervical cancer target motion using a multivariate regression model to enable patient selection for adaptive external beam radiotherapy
CONCLUSION: Uterocervix motion is complex and multifactorial. We present two multivariate models which predicted motion with reasonable accuracy using pre-treatment information, and outperformed the only published method.PMID:38419803 | PMC:PMC10901141 | DOI:10.1016/j.phro.2024.100554 (Source: Health Physics)

Biochemical outcome after curative treatment for localized prostate cancer with external beam radiotherapy: a cross-sectional study
This study retrospectively assessed the clinicopathological characteristics and biochemical outcomes of patients treated for localised CaP with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) between 2015 and 2020 at a major cancer treatment centre in Accra, Ghana. Patients' socio-demographic and clinical data were collected from their hospital records and analysed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26. Biochemical failure (BCF) was defined as an increase in the level of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) >2 ng/mL above the nadir after curative therapy based on the Phoenix definition. The mean age was 67.6 ye...

Transition of Standard Dosimetry of Absorbed Dose to Water in External Beam Radiotherapy [Part 1]
Igaku Butsuri. 2023;43(4):125-135. doi: 10.11323/jjmp.43.4_125.ABSTRACTThe radiotherapy is performed with the aim of delivering the optimal dose to the target volume with minimal side effect of surrounding normal tissue. For this purpose, quality assurance is essential to ensure that the target volume is correctly irradiated in the optimal geometrical arrangement, and the absorbed dose evaluation is essential to ensure that the prescribed dose is correctly delivered. The absorbed doses are generally evaluated using a small cavity ionization chamber that utilizes gas ionization. For the evaluation of absorbed dose to water ...
