Mashup Score: 5Consolidation Regimen and Cerebral Atrophy in Patients with Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma - 8 hour(s) ago
These findings demonstrate accelerated cerebral atrophy in PCNSL after consolidation compared to healthy adults. However, atrophy did not differ by consolidation strategy. These long-term results suggest acceptable neurotoxicity following RD-WBRT.

We aim to determine the current treatment patterns and recommendations among physicians for cutaneous lymphomas and to identify the types of skin lymphomas for which existing radiation regimens need improvement.

Radiotherapy, including conventionally fractionated external beam radiation therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy, is a cornerstone in the interdisciplinary management of meningiomas. Recent advances in radiation oncology and also in other fields, such as neuropathology and imaging, have various implications for meningioma radiotherapy. This review aims to summarize current and anticipated developments, as well as active clinical trials related to the use of radiotherapy for meningiomas.

Mashup Score: 34Hormone Replacement Therapy in Patients with Gynecologic Cancer and Radiation-Induced Premature Ovarian Insufficiency - 27 day(s) ago
Patients with gynecologic, gastrointestinal, or genitourinary malignancy are at elevated risk of developing premature ovarian insufficiency from the multimodality therapies used to treat their cancers. Premature ovarian insufficiency can result in long-term decrements to all-cause mortality, bone density, cardiovascular health, sexual health, cognitive health, and body mass. Hormone replacement therapy has been demonstrated to reverse these long-term sequalae with the goal of restoring estrogen concentrations to physiological levels.

Mashup Score: 10Oxygen Consumption In Vivo by Ultra-High Dose Rate Electron Irradiation Depends Upon Baseline Tissue Oxygenation - 28 day(s) ago
This study aimed to assess the impact of tissue oxygen levels on transient oxygen consumption induced by ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) electron radiation in murine flank and to examine the effect of dose rate variations on this relationship.

Mashup Score: 13Is the IROC H&N credentialing phantom an effective surrogate for different anatomical sites? - 2 month(s) ago
The IROC head and neck phantom is used to credential institutions for IMRT delivery for all anatomical sites where delivery of modulated therapy is a primary challenge. This study evaluated how appropriate the use of this phantom is for varied clinical anatomy by evaluating how closely the IROC head and neck phantom described clinical dose errors from beam modeling compared to various anatomical sites.

We sought to estimate the conditional risk of development of neurocognitive function failure (NCFF) after whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) for patients with brain metastases (BM) on NRG Oncology CC001. In addition, we aimed to determine if factors prognostic of NCFF at time of treatment remained relevant over time.

In oligoprogressive (OP) cancer, there are a limited number of metastatic areas progressing on a background of stable or responding to widespread cancer. Although the standard of care for OP is changing systemic therapy (ST), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is being explored as an alternative local therapy targeting the sites of progression.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography or computed tomography (PET/CT) has emerged as a superior imaging option to conventional imaging for prostate cancer. The majority of early evidence and prospective trials evaluated PSMA PET/CT in the biochemical recurrence or metastatic setting. However, there has been an increasing number of prospective trials in the primary setting. The purpose of this narrative review was to describe the role of PSMA PET/CT in localized primary prostate cancer.
