Evidence-based clinical recommendations for hypofractionated radiotherapy: exploring efficacy and safety - Part 3. Genitourinary and gynecological cancers
Gyu Sang Yoo, Soo-Yoon Sung, Jin Ho Song, Byoung Hyuck Kim, Yoo-Kang Kwak, Kyung Su Kim, Hwa Kyung Byun, Yeon-Sil Kim, Yeon Joo Kim
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):171-180.   Published online July 8, 2024
Hypofractionated radiotherapy (RT) has become a trend in the modern era, as advances in RT techniques, including intensity-modulated RT and image-guided RT, enable the precise and safe delivery of high-dose radiation. Hypofractionated RT offers convenience and can reduce the financial burden on patients by decreasing the number of fractions. Furthermore, hypofractionated RT is potentially more beneficial for tumors with a...

Supervised deep learning-based synthetic computed tomography from kilovoltage cone-beam computed tomography images for adaptive radiation therapy in head and neck cancer
Chirasak Khamfongkhruea, Tipaporn Prakarnpilas, Sangutid Thongsawad, Aphisara Deeharing, Thananya Chanpanya, Thunpisit Mundee, Pattarakan Suwanbut, Kampheang Nimjaroen
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):181-191.   Published online May 30, 2024

Purpose: To generate and investigate a supervised deep learning algorithm for creating synthetic computed tomography (sCT) images from kilovoltage cone-beam computed tomography (kV-CBCT) images for adaptive radiation therapy (ART) in head and neck cancer (HNC). Materials and methods: This study generated the supervised U-Net deep learning model using 3,491 image pairs from planning computed tomography (pCT) and kV-CBCT datasets obtained from...
Unilateral radiotherapy for tonsillar cancer with multiple ipsilateral neck lymph nodes
Tae Hyun Kim, Hong-Gyun Wu, Soon-Hyun Ahn, Woo-Jin Jeong, Wonjae Cha, Keun-Yong Eom
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):192-199.   Published online September 25, 2024

Purpose: For tonsillar cancer with multiple ipsilateral neck lymph nodes, the safety and efficacy of unilateral radiotherapy (RT) have long been a topic of debate. We performed retrospective analyses of patients having ipsilateral neck lymph nodes treated with unilateral RT in two tertiary referral hospitals. Material and Methods: This study accrued 29 patients who were diagnosed as well-lateralized tonsillar cancer with...
Optimizing target and diaphragmatic configuration, and dosimetric benefits using continuous positive airway pressure in stereotactic ablative radiotherapy for lung tumors
Jung Bin Park, Joo Ho Lee, Ji Hyun Chang, Jaeman Son, Seho Kwon, Su Yun Choi, Hyun-Woo Shin, Tosol Yu, Hak Jae Kim
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):200-209.   Published online September 20, 2024

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of facilitating target delineation of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in patients undergoing stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) for lung tumors by lung expansion and respiratory motion management. Materials and Methods: We performed a prospective single-institutional trial of patients who were diagnosed with either primary lung cancer or lung metastases and received SABR...
Oncological outcomes in patients with residual triple-negative breast cancer after preoperative chemotherapy
Hyunki Park, Haeyoung Kim, Won Park, Won Kyung Cho, Nalee Kim, Tae Gyu Kim, Young-Hyuck Im, Jin Seok Ahn, Yeon Hee Park, Ji-Yeon Kim, Seok Jin Nam, Seok Won Kim, Jeong Eon Lee, Jonghan Yu, Byung Joo Chae, Sei Kyung Lee, Jai-Min Ryu
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):210-217.   Published online September 20, 2024

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and prognostic implications of regional nodal irradiation (RNI) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients with residual triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Materials and Methods: We analyzed 152 patients with residual TNBC who underwent breast-conserving surgery after NAC between December 2008 and December 2017. Most patients (n = 133; 87.5%) received taxane-based chemotherapy. Adjuvant...
Recurrence pattern of glioblastoma treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy versus three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy
So Hwa Mun, Hong Seok Jang, Byung Ok Choi, Shin Woo Kim, Jin-Ho Song
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):218-227.   Published online September 26, 2024

Purpose: To evaluate recurrence patterns of and survival outcomes in glioblastoma treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) versus three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively examined 91 patients with glioblastoma treated with either IMRT (n = 60) or 3D-CRT (n = 31) between January 2013 and December 2019. Magnetic resonance imaging showing tumor recurrence and planning computed tomography...
Skin-directed radiotherapy for primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas
Ha Un Kim, Yeon Joo Kim, Mi Woo Lee, Woo Jin Lee, Sang-wook Lee, Youngju Song, Byungchul Cho, Si Yeol Song
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):228-236.   Published online September 24, 2024

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and toxicities of skin-directed radiotherapy (RT) in primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 57 CTCL lesions treated with skin-directed RT between January 2000 and December 2022. Lesions were categorized into three distinct groups: early-stage disease treated with local RT, advanced-stage disease treated with local RT, and advanced-stage disease treated with...

Long-term treatment of metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma with sequential brachytherapy and stereotactic body radiotherapy
Allison Y. Zhong, Sangwoo S. Kim, Austin Hopper, Greg White, Sayuri Miyauchi, Riley N. Jones, Dan Scanderbeg, Loren K. Mell, Elizabeth Weihe, Nathalie Boutros, Stephen W. Doggett, Andrew B. Sharabi
Radiat Oncol J. 2024;42(3):237-243.   Published online September 10, 2024
Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a malignancy that is difficult to treat and often metastasizes to the lung. Systemic chemotherapies are not effective for this tumor type, thus local therapies are frequently used. Here, we report a case demonstrating the use of extensive ablative interventions in controlling the progression of metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma. A patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma developed...
