Adaptive radiotherapy for soft tissue changes during helical tomotherapy for head and neck cancer

In this study, 10% of the H&N patients underwent soft tissue changes that could only be detected by daily imaging by MVCT. In these patients, shrinkage of 1 cm in body diameter did not affect the coverage of the PTV, but translated into a slightly higher delivered dose to the PTV itself and a higher delivered dose to the normal tissue outside the PTV.

Adaptive Radiotherapy Using Helical Tomotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer in Definitive and Postoperative Settings: Initial Results

Adaptive radiotherapy proved feasible. Modest benefits in reduction in PTV D1, low dose PTV coverage, spinal cord maximum dose and volume of skin receiving 50 Gy were found in this relatively unselected population. Definitively treated patients also had benefits in a reduction in mean parotid dose and the volume of normal tissue outside the PTV receiving 50 Gy.

Early results of CyberKnife radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations

In the near future, using a combination of automatic contouring of an AVM nidus on 3D rotational angiography, automatic contouring of the critical structures on fMR imaging, and inverse treatment planning with dosevolume optimization, radiosurgery for AVMs could become the first completely automated operative technique.

CyberKnife Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases

The CyberKnife has been established as a modern non- invasive technology for intraand extracranial radiosurgery. Its full- body applicability is not at the expense of inferior intracranial treatment quality. The treatment results in brain metastases are in line with the published literature on frame- based technologies.

Clinical Case: Image Quality

Scoliosis patients often require repeated X-ray exposure, which is why this population deserves particular attention and became the focus of this initial dose reduction study. Obtaining good quality diagnostic images with a significantly lower dose of radiation is an important public health goal, especially for these patients.

Clinical Case: Degenerative Scoliosis in the elderly

In conclusion, this particular patient benefited greatly by having his exams performed using EOS. Not only was his physician able to obtain long length, weight-bearing X-ray images, important in observing overall balance and posture, but the various 3D views offered by the sterEOS 3D modeling allowed better visualization of the disease.
