Stereotactic body radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer - A systematic review of prospective data.

Purpose: This systematic review aims to comprehensively summarize the current prospective evidence regarding Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) in various clinical contexts for pancreatic cancer including its use as neoadjuvant therapy for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC), induction therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), salvage therapy for isolated local recurrence (ILR), adjuvant therapy after radical resection, and as a palliative treatment. Special attention is given to the application of magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT).

Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review of the Medline database via PubMed was conducted focusing on prospective studies published within the past decade.

HDR Brachytherapy and SBRT as Bridging Therapy to Liver Transplantation in HCC Patients: A Single-Center Experience.

Background: In the treatment of patients with HCC awaiting liver transplantation (LT), local ablative treatments (LAT) are available either for downstaging or as bridging treatment. We present our clinical experience with both available radiation-based techniques, brachytherapy (BT), and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).

Methods: All patients diagnosed with HCC and who were treated with BT or SBRT at our institution between 2011 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed.

Patient-Reported and Oncological Outcomes of Salvage Therapies for PSMA-Positive Nodal Recurrent Prostate Cancer: Real-Life Experiences and Implications for Future Trial Design.

Introduction: The role of salvage lymph node dissection (SLND) and radiotherapy (SLNRT) in the management of nodal-only recurrent prostate cancer (PC) remains controversial. In addition, impact on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) has not been adequately evaluated yet.

Materials And Methods: Analysis was limited to patients that were diagnosed with nodal-only recurrent PC PSMA-PET/CT.

Interfraction variation and dosimetric changes during image-guided radiation therapy in prostate cancer patients.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify volume changes and dose variations of rectum and bladder during radiation therapy in prostate cancer (PC) patients.

Materials And Methods: We analyzed 20 patients with PC treated with helical tomotherapy. Daily image guidance was performed.
