PURPOSE This study compares the effectiveness of three fractionation schemes of equal fraction size, comprising five fractions of SBRT over 5 days, 10 days, or 15 days, respectively. METHOD This comparative study is based on two tumor-control-probabi

Objective. An artifact in the electron fluence, differential in energy, Φ E , computed by the EGSnrc Monte-Carlo user-code FLURZnrc, was identified and a methodology has been developed to eliminate it. This artifact manifests itself as an ‘unphysi

Simple Summary Reported clinical data on high dose rate mono brachytherapy of prostate cancer carried out using two different treatment regimens are analyzed in this study. The analysis is based on a mechanistic tumor control probability model, which

Purpose Dose escalation improves localized prostate cancer disease control, and moderately hypofractionated external beam radiation is noninferior to conventional fractionation. The evolving treatment approach of ultrahypofractionation with stereotac

Aims For patients with high-risk, locally bulky prostate cancer, an intra-prostatic boost to tumour volumes (dose-painting) offers a risk-adapted dose escalation. We evaluated the feasibility of hypofractionated dose-painting radiotherapy and the ass

Purpose To investigate the impact of a variable inter-individual spread in the tumour cell radiosensitivity and repopulation rate on the tumour control probability (TCP). Methods The radiosensitivity parameters and the repopulation rate are presumed

Purpose In recent years, the reaction-diffusion (Fisher-Kolmogorov) equation has received much attention from the oncology research community due to its ability to describe the infiltrating nature of glioblastoma multiforme and its extraordinary resi

Small-field dosimetry is central to the planning and delivery of radiotherapy to patients with cancer. Small-field dosimetry is beset by complex issues, such as loss of charged-particle equilibrium (CPE), source occlusion and electron scattering effe
