TL;DR: The purposes of the study were to estimate the PG overdose and the xerostomia risk increase during a “standard” IMRT (IMRTstd) and the benefits of an adaptive IMRT with weekly replanning to spare the PGs and limit the risk of xerOSTomia.

TL;DR: 2 radiomic features derived from 18F-FDG PET were independently associated with local control in patients with non–small cell lung cancer undergoing SBRT and could be combined in an accurate predictive model, which could provide local relapse-related information and be helpful in clinical decision making.

TL;DR: The current concepts of the synergism between RT and immunotherapy, the molecular effects of RT in the tumor microenvironment, their impact on immune activation and its potential clinical applications in trials exploring this important therapeutic opportunity are summarized.

TL;DR: The inverse planning simulated annealing (IPSA) software provided fast and automatic solutions for the optimization of dose distribution, however, the straightforward use of IPSA generated significant heterogeneity in dwell time values.

TL;DR: These studies suggest a benefit of ART in regard to decreasing xerostomia, increasing quality of life, and increasing local control for locally advanced HNC, and randomized trials are necessary before using the technique in routine practice.
