Lower doses to hippocampi and other brain structures for skull-base meningiomas with IMPT compared to photon therapy.
This study systematically compared intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT), non-coplanar volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and intensity modulated...
Normal tissue complication probability models in plan evaluation of children with brain tumors referred to proton therapy.
40 patients treated with PBT were selected for VMAT re-plan. The VMAT and delivered PT plans were compared by dose/volume metrics and NTCP models related to...
Are further studies needed to justify the use of proton therapy for paediatric cancers of the central nervous system?
A review article published in the Green Journal. Having analyzed the available data of PBT for paediatric cancers of the central nervous system (CNS), this...
Improved neuropsychological outcomes following proton therapy relative to x-ray therapy for pediatric brain tumor patients.
This study analyzed 125 children who received radiation (XRT or PRT) and had post-treatment neuropsychological evaluation including intelligence (IQ), attention...
National practice patterns of proton vs photon therapy in the treatment of adult patients with primary brain tumors in the US.
With National Cancer Database, 73,073 adult patients with primary brain tumors treated with radiation were analyzed (n = 72,635 [99.4%] photon therapy, n = 438...
