Published in 2022 at "Medical Physics"

DOI: 10.1002/mp.15715

Abstract: Abstract Purpose Advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still a challenging indication for conventional photon radiotherapy. Proton therapy has the potential to improve outcomes, but proton treatment slots remain a limited resource despite an… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Medical physics"

DOI: 10.1002/mp.16297

Abstract: BACKGROUND Hybrid proton-photon radiotherapy (RT) can provide better plan quality than proton or photon only RT, in terms of robustness of target coverage and sparing of organs-at-risk (OAR). PURPOSE This work develops a hybrid treatment… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Acta Oncologica"

DOI: 10.1080/0284186x.2021.1947523

Abstract: Abstract Background Dose escalation has been associated with improved biochemical control for prostate cancer. Focusing the high dose on the MRI-defined intraprostatic lesions (IL) could spare the surrounding organs at risk and hence allow further… read more here.
