Establishing cost-effective allocation of proton therapy for patients with mediastinal Hodgkin lymphoma
A health-economic study by the Jacksonville group. This study utilized (1) patient-level dosimetric information for a cost-effectiveness analysis using a Markov...
Cross-modality applicability of rectal normal tissue complication probability models from photon- to proton-based radiotherapy.
This study aimed to assess the applicability of photon-based NTCP models to rectum morbidity outcomes following PT for prostate cancer patients. The data of...
Retrospective analysis of reduced energy switching and room switching times on throughput efficiency of a multi-room proton therapy center.
A 4-room center treating ~90 patients/day, treating for ~7 years underwent a software upgrade which reduced room and energy switching times from ~30 to~20 sec...
Dose distribution of intensity-modulated proton therapy with and without a multi-leaf collimator for the treatment of maxillary sinus cancer: a comparative effectiveness study.
Using collimation can sharpen the penumbra towards surrounding normal tissue in the low energy region of the proton beam, this study from Japan thus examined...
