Radiation therapists shortage in France: Organizational consequences and difficulties in deploying new missions and/or tasks delegation
CONCLUSION: This survey shows a significant impact of radiation therapist shortage in radiotherapy oncology care (treatment delays, access to caregiver support time, workload on treatment teams), and represents a major obstacle to the development of radiotherapy structures.PMID:37596123 | DOI:10.1016/j.canrad.2023.07.007

CT-guided iodine-125 brachytherapy as salvage therapy for local-regional recurrent breast cancer
ConclusionsCT-guided iodine-125 brachytherapy provided a safe and effective choice for recurrent BC with significant local therapeutic effects and minor complications, especially for elderly patients with chronic underlying disease and those who were not eligible for surgical resection and had failed to benefit from systemic therapy.

Deep learning-based dose map prediction for high-dose-rate brachytherapy
Conclusion. We successfully developed a method specifically for 3D brachytherapy dose prediction. Our model demonstrated comparable performance to clinical plans generated by experienced dosimetrists. The developed technique is expected to improve the standardization and quality control of brachytherapy treatment planning.PMID:37589292 | DOI:10.1088/1361-6560/acecd2

The prognosis of patients with prostate cancer receiving permanent seed implantation stratified by prostate volume: should we be reluctant to treat with brachytherapy because of a very small prostate ( < 15 cc)?
Several studies have reported a relationship between prostate volume (PV) and prognosis in prostate cancer. Notably, patients with smaller prostates have a more high-grade and advanced disease on final pathology and are at a higher risk of progression ([1 –3]). Other studies have also found that patients with smaller prostates are more likely to experience biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy ([1,4,5,6]).

Proton Therapy for the Management of Localized Prostate Cancer: Long-Term Clinical Outcomes at a Comprehensive Cancer Center
Prostate cancer is the leading malignancy in men (excluding skin cancer) and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in men.1 Established treatments for localized prostate cancer include radical prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), and brachytherapy; information on the management of localized disease with cryotherapy, ablation, and high-frequency ultrasound are emerging. In the United States, surgical intervention is currently the most common approach, followed by EBRT.

Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 4142: Psychometric Results of a New Patient-Reported Outcome Measure for Uveal Melanoma Post-Brachytherapy Treatment: The PROM-UM
The objective of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of a new patient-reported outcome instrument intended for use with patients who have undergone brachytherapy for uveal melanoma (PROM-UM). Classical test theory and item response theory were used to evaluate the performance of individual items and domains. A convenience sample of 439 participants who had undergone brachytherapy for uveal melanoma from one of three North American ocular oncology treatment centers were included in this cross-sectional study. Exploratory factor analysis identified three domains which were labelled &ldquo;Symptom I...
