Hypoxia Imaging With FAZA-PET and Theoretical Considerations With Regard to Dose Painting for Individualization of Radiotherapy in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Anca L. Grosu,Michael Souvatzoglou,Barbara Röper,Martin Dobritz,N. Wiedenmann,Vesna Jacob,Hans-Jürgen Wester,Gerald Reischl,Hans Juergen Machulla,Markus Schwaiger,Michael Molls,Morand Piert,Morand Piert +12 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that FAZA-PET imaging could be used for a hypoxia-directed intensity-modulated radiotherapy approach in head and neck cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radioadaptive response revisited.
Soile Tapio,Vesna Jacob +1 more
TL;DR: Although adaptive response seems to function by an on/off principle, it is a phenomenon showing a high degree of inter- and intraindividual variability, it remains to be seen to what extent adaptive response is functional in humans at relevant dose and dose-rate exposures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Planning Comparison of Dynamic IMRT for Different Collimator Leaf Thicknesses with Helical Tomotherapy and RapidArc for Prostate and Head and Neck Tumors
TL;DR: For prostate and head and neck cases, all investigated IMRT techniques provide highly conformal treatment plans in terms of both target coverage and critical structure sparing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stereotactic fractionated radiotherapy and LINAC radiosurgery in the treatment of vestibular schwannoma-report about both stereotactic methods from a single institution.
Christine Kopp,Claudius Fauser,Axel Müller,Sabrina T. Astner,Vesna Jacob,Christianto B. Lumenta,Bernhard Meyer,Jörg-Christian Tonn,Michael Molls,Anca-Ligia Grosu +9 more
TL;DR: A high tumor control rate and low number of side effects are registered after SFR and RS of VS, confirming that considering tumor diameter, both RS and SFR are good treatment modalities for VS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lung cancer in Mayak workers: interaction of smoking and plutonium exposure
TL;DR: Lung cancer mortality among 5058 male workers of the Mayak Production Association has been analyzed with emphasis on the interaction of smoking and radiation exposure by using the two-step clonal expansion (TSCE) model of carcinogenesis, and the model fits the data less well than the preferred model.
