DOI: 10.1002/jmrs.219
Abstract: Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of early‐stage Hodgkin lymphoma, but late toxicities such as cardiovascular disease and second malignancy are a major concern. Our aim was to evaluate the potential of deep… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmp.2018.04.013
Abstract: Purpose VMAT for left breast treatments allows heart sparing without compromising PTV coverage. High plan complexity could occur if Free Breathing (FB) technique is adopted. Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) procedure increases the heart-to-breast distance,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmp.2018.06.478
Abstract: Purpose Radiotherapy is an effective treatment method for managing breast cancer, but patients may have cardiac disease as a late radiation effect after completing radiotherapy. The left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) dose and mean… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.prro.2019.05.009
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Patients with lower mediastinal lymphoma (LML) benefit dosimetrically from proton therapy (PT) compared with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). The added dosimetric benefit of deep-inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) is unknown; therefore, we evaluated IMRT versus PT and… read more here.
