Background and purpose
Clarification of propagation patterns in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is challenging, but understanding these has implications for individual prognostication and clinical trial design. However, systematic knowledge in this area is lacking. The aim of this study was to characterize the spatial and temporal features of propagation patterns in ALS, and to evaluate the association...
Background
Reirradiation for locoregionally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LR‐NPC) after high‐dose radiotherapy (RT) is challenging and usually is associated with poor survival and severe toxicities. Because of its physical and biological advantages over photon‐beam RT, carbon‐ion RT (CIRT) could be a potential treatment option for patients with LR‐NPC.
Methods
Patients with LR‐NPC who underwent...
Background
The objective of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of patients with high‐grade glioma who received treatment with particle radiotherapy.
Methods
Between June 2015 and October 2018, 50 consecutive and nonselected patients with glioblastoma multiforme (n = 34) or anaplastic glioma (n = 16) were treated at the Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center. Twenty‐four patients received proton...
BACKGROUND
Reirradiation for locoregionally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after a definitive dose of radiotherapy (RT) is challenging and usually associated with severe toxicities. Intensity‐modulated carbon ion RT (IMCT) offers physical/biologic advantages over photon‐based intensity‐modulated RT. Herein, the authors report their initial experience of IMCT in previously irradiated patients...
