To evaluate the planning feasibility of spiral volumetric modulated arc therapy (SVMAT) for preserving ovarian function in cervical cancer radiotherapy. The SVMAT technique, which integrates longitudinal couch movement, combines the efficiency of volumetric m...

The purpose of this study was to quantitatively analyze the effect of iodine contrast agent injection on heart volume and target volume positioning in patients with thoracic tumors adjacent to the heart, and to further evaluate how these changes influence the...

This study evaluates the dosimetric advantages of TaiChi, a novel radiotherapy platform that integrates 6 MV linacbased volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) with γray stereotactic radiotherapy, for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Accurate clinical target volume (CTV) delineation is essential for radiotherapy in esophageal cancer but remains highly subjective and variable due to its reliance on physician experience. Most automated approaches focus on gross tumor volume (GTV) and do not...

In this study, a novel composite nanoplatform, BSA-THPC@99mTc, was engineered by encapsulating the sonosensitizer meso-tetra (hydroxyphenyl) chlorin (THPC) into bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticles, followed by radiolabeling with technetium-99m (99mTc). T...

Hippocampal-avoidance whole-brain radiotherapy (HA-WBRT) presents a dosimetric challenge in sculpting steep dose gradients to spare critical neural structures. This study evaluated a novel Spiral Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (SVMAT) technique against conv...

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) modulates the tumor immune microenvironment and potentially induces the abscopal effect. Traditional Chinese medicine, Sini Decoction (SND), has demonstrated potential in enhancing immunity and inhibiting tumor metastasis...
