Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient CT simulation of the four-field technique for conformal radiotherapy of prostate carcinoma
Richard K. Valicenti,Frank M. Waterman,Raymond Croce,Benjamin W. Corn,Nagalingam Suntharalingam,Walter J. Curran +5 more
TL;DR: A method to more efficiently localize pelvic anatomy directly from digital reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) to facilitate positioning of the beam isocenter and provide reliable conformal radiotherapy is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in NRG oncology/NSABP B-39/RTOG 0413: A randomized phase III study of conventional whole breast irradiation (WBI) versus partial breast irradiation (PBI) in stage 0, I, or II breast cancer.
Patricia A. Ganz,Reena S. Cecchini,Julia White,Frank A. Vicini,Thomas B. Julian,Douglas W. Arthur,Rachel Rabinovitch,Robert R. Kuske,David S. Parda,Michael F. Scheier,Kathryn Winter,Soonmyung Paik,Henry Mark Kuerer,Laura A. Vallow,Lori J. Pierce,Eleftherios P. Mamounas,Joseph P. Costantino,Beryl McCormick,Walter J. Curran,Norman Wolmark +19 more
TL;DR: PBI is an alternative to WBI, with potentially greater therapy (tx) compliance, and better integration with chemotherapy (CTX) treatment with NSABP B-39/RTOG 0413 clinical outcome results from 201...
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A learning-based automatic segmentation method on left ventricle in SPECT imaging
Tonghe Wang,Yang Lei,Haipeng Tang,Joseph Harms,Cheng Wang,Tian Liu,Walter J. Curran,Weihua Zhou,Dianfu Li,Xiaofeng Yang +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the proposed method accurately quantifies the changes in LV cavity volume during the cardiac cycle, and demonstrates the potential of the learning-based segmentation methods in gated MPS imaging for clinical use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Disease Progression after Carboplatin/Etoposide + Atezolizumab in Extensive-Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC).
Kristin Higgins,Walter J. Curran,Stephen V. Liu,W. Yu,M. Brockman,A. Johnson,I. Bara,Jeffrey D. Bradley +7 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Stereotactic body radiation therapy vs. surgery in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer: lessons learned, current recommendations, future directions.
TL;DR: A large number of patients in the United States are diagnosed with early stage nonsmall cell lung carcinoma, a proportion that is expected to rise with the implementation of low-dose CT screening programs.
