Rectal resection surgery after neoadjuvant treatment has been the mainstay treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer. However, functional outcomes and quality of life after radical resection of the rectum remain suboptimal. The excellent oncologic outcomes in patients who achi...
Purpose: There has been limited work assessing the use of re-irradiation (re-RT) for local failure following stereotactic spinal radiosurgery (SSRS). We reviewed our institutional experience of conventionally-fractionated external beam radiation (cEBRT) for salvage therapy follo...
Purpose: To perform the analysis of the peripheral blood lymphocyte changes after stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) in patients with oligometastatic cancers.
Materials and Methods: The dynamics of the immune status in peripheral blood was prospectively evaluated in 46 p...
Purpose: This study explored the potential feasibility of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in monitoring treatment response through the measurement of chromosomal instabilities using I-scores in the context of radiation therapy (RT) for other solid tumors.
Materials and Methods: This stud...
Purpose: We aimed to determine whether patients with esophageal cancer with a low baseline body mass index (BMI) have a poor prognosis following radiotherapy (RT).
Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 50 patients with esophageal cancer to determine wheth...
Purpose: The target delineation of whole ventricle radiotherapy (WVRT) in germinoma varies among radiation oncologists, especially regarding the inclusion of the prepontine cistern (PC). We evaluated the outcome of PC-sparing WVRT in localized germinoma.
