T < sub > 2 < /sub > * Imaging Assessment of Neoadjuvant Radiation Therapy Combined With Pharmacological Ascorbate in Extremity Soft-Tissue Sarcomas: A Pilot Study
CONCLUSION: T2* measurements prior to treatment, two weeks after initiating treatment, and before surgery showed moderate to strong correlations with percent necrosis. These results support the potential for using T2* mapping to predict and assess response to neoadjuvant radiation therapy combined with pharmacological ascorbate in extremity STS.

A Pilot Study of Nutritional Supplementation in Soft Tissue Sarcoma Patients
CONCLUSION: In our limited sample size, there was no difference in wound healing complications between sarcoma patients who received postoperative BCAA supplementation compared to a historical cohort who were not supplemented. Patients who did not receive supplementation had a significant decline in post-operative psoas index following operative sarcoma removal.
