Helical tomotherapy (HT) was introduced at the Greater Poland Cancer Centre (GPCC) in April 2009. Retrospective analysis included data from treatments performed for first 656 patients treated with HT between May 2009 and 2012 GPCC. In order to evaluate implications on daily workload scheduling of patients, stepwise regression time each component overall treatment time, such as positioning, imaging, registration, irradiation were performed. A detailed included: (1) learning curves optimized...
Abstract Introduction The study aims to establish the optimal planning risk volume ( PRV ) spinal cord SC for oropharyngeal cancer patients during adaptive radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy. Methods Geometrical uncertainties of were evaluated. Differences between planned and delivered maximum doses each part established every fraction dose cumulative dose. Maximum evaluated as a received in 0.5 1 cm 3 analysed defined C 1– 2, 3– 4, 5– 6 7– Th where n was ‐th cervical vertebra =...
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess feasibility multitracer positron emission tomography (PET) imaging before and during chemoradiation evaluate predictive value image-based factors for outcome in locally advanced head neck cancers treated with chemoradiation. Methods: In week prior treatment [18F]−2-flu-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG), [18F]−3'-flu-3'deoxythymidine (FLT) [18F]-flumisonidazole (FMISO) performed. FLT scans were repeated at 14 28 Gy FMISO 36 Gy. Overall survival,...
Radical treatment of patients diagnosed with inoperable and locally advanced head neck cancers (LAHNC) is still a challenge for clinicians. Prediction incomplete response (IR) primary tumour would be value to the optimization LAHNC. Aim this study was develop evaluate models based on clinical radiomics features prediction IR in LAHNC treated definitive chemoradiation or radiotherapy. Clinical imaging data 290 were included into retrospective study. model built patient related features....
PurposeTo determine how ESTRO can collaborate with Radiation Oncology National Societies (NS) according to its mission and values, define the new roadmap strengthen NS network role in forthcoming years.Materials methodsThe committee launched a survey addressed all European Societies, available online from June 5th October 30th 2018. Questions were divided into three main sections: (1) general information about NS; (2) relevant activities (to understand landscape of each context action); (3)...
No clear criteria have yet been established to guide decision-making for patient selection and the optimal timing of adaptive radiotherapy (ART) based on image-guided (IGRT). We developed a novel protocol—the Best Adaptive Radiotherapy (B-ART) protocol—to ART. The aim present study is describe this protocol, evaluate its validity in patients with head neck (HN) cancer, identify anatomical clinical predictors need replanning. retrospectively evaluated 82 HN cancer who underwent helical...
Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was the evaluation volume and dose differences in selected structures patients with head neck cancer during treatment on Helical TomoTherapy (HT) using a commercially available deformable image registration (DIR) tool. We attempted to identify anatomical clinical predictive factors for significant changes probability. Material methods: According our institutional protocol, we retrospectively evaluated group 20 H&N treated HT who received...
