Sexual characteristics of patients with prostate cancer seen for radiation treatment
CONCLUSION: The management of prostate cancer should include sex therapy and rehabilitation in couples from the point of diagnosis to maintain sexual function as close as possible to that in the general population in order to maintain an improved quality of life.PMID:37533949 | PMC:PMC10393305 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2023.1577

Ultrasound- guided catheter- based yttrium-90- mediated brachytherapy of neointimal hyperplasia accompanied by 5- aminolevulinic acid- mediated photodynamic therapy
In this study, we developed an experimental combined β- brachytherapy and photodynamic therapy protocol, and investigated its effectiveness on neointimal hyperplasia reduction, wherein diagnostic ultrasound system is adjuncted with treatment system, with a goal of increased safety.

Ultrasound- guided balloon angioplasty of occluded artery accompanied by combined disulphonated aluminum phthalocyanine - mediated photodynamic therapy and iodine-125- mediated gamma ray- intravascular brachytherapy
Background and Aims: The balloon angioplasty methods that are currently in use, cause to inflammation and subsequent restenosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined photodynamic therapy and brachytherapy on inflammation and restenosis reduction after balloon angioplasty of the animal occluded common carotid artery model, wherein diagnostic ultrasound is adjuncted with angioplasty and combination therapy system, with a goal of increased safety.

Ultrasound- guided laser- mediated thermal angioplasty of occluded artery accompanied by combined delta- aminolevulinic acid- mediated photodynamic therapy and catheter- based iridium-192- mediated brachytherapy
Background and Aims: The laser atherectomy methods that are currently in use, cause to inflammation and subsequent restenosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined photodynamic therapy and brachytherapy on inflammation and intimal hyperplasia reduction after angioplasty, wherein diagnostic ultrasound is adjuncted with therapy system, with a goal of increased safety.

High-volume brachytherapy centers
Having a challenging localized penile cancer case. I think it might be amenable to brachytherapy. Are there any centers in the US doing these with good experience and volume? On the same topic, any place offering H&N brachytherapy for oral cavity cancers?

A quick guide on implementing and quality assuring 3D printing in radiation oncology
J Appl Clin Med Phys. 2023 Jul 27:e14102. doi: 10.1002/acm2.14102. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs three-dimensional (3D) printing becomes increasingly common in radiation oncology, proper implementation, usage, and ongoing quality assurance (QA) are essential. While there have been many reports on various clinical investigations and several review articles, there is a lack of literature on the general considerations of implementing 3D printing in radiation oncology departments, including comprehensive process establishment and proper ongoing QA. This review aims to guide radiation oncology departments in effectively usin...

Place of radiotherapy for treatment of metastatic cervical, vaginal and endometrial uterine cancer
Cancer Radiother. 2023 Jul 26:S1278-3218(23)00125-7. doi: 10.1016/j.canrad.2023.06.012. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBeyond classical palliative-intent irradiation schemes, there are increasing data suggesting a benefit for intensive locoregional treatments in metastatic gynecological cancers. Such approach aims at avoiding local symptoms related to tumor progression, but may also improve survival outcome by shrinking tumor burden to a microscopic state. This strategy is rarely considered upfront (in highly selected patients with very limited oligometastatic disease), but rather after systemic treatment. In case of tumor ...

Oncological results and cancer control definition in focal therapy for Prostate Cancer: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: FT is a promising alternative treatment for localized prostate cancer in terms of Oncological Outcomes, however there is a wide heterogeneity in the definition of cancer control, the reporting of oncological outcomes and a lack of high-quality clinical trials. Solid comparative studies with standard treatments and an unambiguous consensus on how to describe Cancer Control in the field of Focal Therapy are needed.PMID:37507479 | DOI:10.1038/s41391-023-00699-7

Circulating miR-21 as a prognostic biomarker in HCC treated by CT-guided high-dose rate brachytherapy
Prognostic biomarkers identifying patients with early tumor progression after local ablative therapy remain an unmet clinical need. The aim of this study was to investigate circulating miR-21 and miR-210 level...
