DOI: 10.1007/s00066-019-01451-8
Abstract: BackgroundThe decision between definitive radio(chemo)therapy (RCT) or a surgical strategy, i. e. surgery ± adjuvant radio(chemo)therapy for optimal treatment of oropharyngeal cancer is highly debated. Human papillomavirus(HPV)-related tumours are a distinct entity associated with p16 overexpression. While this represents a major… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ctro.2017.11.008
Abstract: In glioma patients, linac-based photon beam irradiation is a widely applied therapy, which achieves highly conformal target volume coverage, but is also known to cause side-effects to adjacent areas of healthy tissue. Apart from subjective… read more here.

Primary radio(chemo)therapy for esophageal cancer in elderly patients: are efficiency and toxicity comparable with younger patients?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "European Journal of Medical Research"
DOI: 10.1186/s40001-017-0265-x
Abstract: PurposeIn elderly patients with esophageal cancer (EC), esophagectomy is associated with an increased mortality, and therefore these patients are often treated with definite (chemo)radiation. The purpose of this study was to assess the toxicity and… read more here.
