Journal ArticleDOI
SpekCalc: a program to calculate photon spectra from tungsten anode x-ray tubes.
Gavin Poludniowski,Guillaume Landry,François DeBlois,François DeBlois,Philip M. Evans,Frank Verhaegen +5 more
TL;DR: Noteworthy is the particularly wide range of tube potentials and anode angles that can be modelled and the program is therefore potentially of use to those working in superficial/orthovoltage radiotherapy, as well as diagnostic radiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partial-breast radiotherapy after breast conservation surgery for patients with early breast cancer (UK IMPORT LOW trial): 5-year results from a multicentre, randomised, controlled, phase 3, non-inferiority trial
Charlotte E. Coles,Clare Griffin,Anna M. Kirby,Jenny Titley,R.K. Agrawal,Abdulla Alhasso,I.S. Bhattacharya,A.M. Brunt,Laura Ciurlionis,Charlie Chan,Ellen M. Donovan,M.

Twyman,K Venables,Anna Winship,John Winstanley,Gordon C. Wishart,Alastair M. Thompson +52 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesised that partial-breast radiotherapy restricted to the vicinity of the original tumour in women at lower than average risk of local relapse will improve the balance of beneficial versus adverse effects compared with whole-breasts radiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calculation of x-ray spectra emerging from an x-ray tube. Part I. electron penetration characteristics in x-ray targets.
TL;DR: The penetration characteristics of electron beams into x-ray targets are investigated for incident electron kinetic energies in the range 50-150 keV and the crudity of the use of the Thomson-Whiddington law to describe electron penetration and energy loss is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The UK HeartSpare Study: Randomised evaluation of voluntary deep-inspiratory breath-hold in women undergoing breast radiotherapy
Frederick R. Bartlett,Ruth Colgan,Karen Carr,Ellen M. Donovan,Helen McNair,I. Locke,Philip M. Evans,Joanne S Haviland,John Yarnold,Anna M. Kirby +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared deep-inspiratory breath hold (v-DIBH) and DIBH with the active breathing coordinator (ABC-DibH) in patients undergoing left breast radiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prone versus supine positioning for whole and partial-breast radiotherapy: A comparison of non-target tissue dosimetry
Anna M. Kirby,Philip M. Evans,Ellen M. Donovan,Helen M. Convery,Joanna S. Haviland,John Yarnold +5 more
TL;DR: In the context of tangential-field WBI and PBI, prone positioning is likely to benefit left-breast-affected women of larger breast volume, but to be detrimental in left- Breasts affected women of smaller breast volume.
