Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation dose-volume effects in the lung.
Lawrence B. Marks,Søren M. Bentzen,Joseph O. Deasy,Feng-Ming Spring Kong,Jeffrey D. Bradley,I. Vogelius,Issam El Naqa,Jessica L. Hubbs,Joos V. Lebesque,Robert Timmerman,Mary K. Martel,Andrew Jackson +11 more
TL;DR: The three-dimensional dose, volume, and outcome data for lung are reviewed in detail and it is confirmed that there is no evident threshold "tolerance dose-volume" levels and there are strong volume and fractionation effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consideration of dose limits for organs at risk of thoracic radiotherapy: atlas for lung, proximal bronchial tree, esophagus, spinal cord, ribs, and brachial plexus.
Feng-Ming Spring Kong,Timothy Ritter,Douglas J. Quint,Suresh Senan,Laurie E. Gaspar,R.U. Komaki,Coen W. Hurkmans,Robert Timmerman,Andrea Bezjak,Jeffrey D. Bradley,Benjamin Movsas,Lon H. Marsh,Paul Okunieff,Hak Choy,Walter J. Curran +14 more
TL;DR: The dose limits and standardize the three-dimenional (3D) radiographic definition for the organs at risk (OARs) for thoracic radiotherapy (RT), including the lung, proximal bronchial tree, esophagus, spinal cord, ribs, and brachial plexus are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival Outcome After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy and Surgery for Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis
Xiangpeng Zheng,Matthew J. Schipper,Kelley M. Kidwell,Jules Lin,Rishindra M. Reddy,Yanping Ren,Andrew C. Chang,Fanzhen Lv,Mark B. Orringer,Feng-Ming Spring Kong +9 more
TL;DR: In SBRT studies, overall survival improved with increasing proportion of operable patients, and after adjustment for these differences, OS and DFS do not differ significantly between S BRT and surgery in patients with operable stage I NSCLC.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Pilot Study of [18F]Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Scans During and After Radiation-Based Therapy in Patients With Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Feng-Ming Spring Kong,Kirk A. Frey,Kirk A. Frey,Leslie E. Quint,Randall K. Ten Haken,James A. Hayman,Marc L. Kessler,Indrin J. Chetty,Daniel P. Normolle,Avraham Eisbruch,Theodore S. Lawrence +10 more
TL;DR: This pilot study suggests a significant correlation in tumor metabolic response and no association in lung FDG activity between during RT scans and 3 months post-RT scans in patients with NSCLC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple Factors Associated With Radiation-Induced Lung Toxicity After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy of the Thorax: A Pooled Analysis of 88 Studies.
J. Zhao,J. Zhao,Ellen Yorke,Ling Li,Ling Li,Brian D. Kavanagh,X. Allen Li,Shiva K. Das,Moyed Miften,Andreas Rimner,J. Campbell,J. Xue,Andrew Jackson,Jimm Grimm,Michael T. Milano,Feng-Ming Spring Kong,Feng-Ming Spring Kong +16 more
TL;DR: The overall rate of RILT is relatively low after thoracic SBRT, but older age and larger tumor size are significant adverse risk factors for RILt.
