BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To compare few leaf electron collimator (FLEC)-based
modulated electron radiotherapy (MERT) to conventional direct electron (DE) and volumetric …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess the potential benefits and limitations of a
mixed beam therapy, which combined bolus electron conformal therapy (BECT) with …

Purpose: This paper describes the development of a forward planning process for
modulated electron radiotherapy (MERT). The approach is based on a previously developed …

Recently, intensity-modulated radiation therapy and modulated electron radiotherapy have
gathered a growing interest for the treatment of breast and head and neck tumours. In this …

Aims: The aim of this study is to compare the modalities of three-dimensional conformal RT
(3DCRT) and electron beam therapy as boost in post-lumpectomy patients of early stage …

Purpose: Modulated electron radiation therapy (MERT) represents an active area of interest
that offers the potential to improve healthy tissue sparing in treatment of certain cancer …

Purpose To report the clinical implementation of a novel external beam radiotherapy
technique for accelerated partial breast irradiation treatments based on combined electron …

INTRODUCTION: Electron beam radiation is the modality most often used to deliver an
operative bed boost to breast cancer patients after completing whole breast radiation …

Radiotherapy with electrons is commonly applied to the tumor bed after whole-breast
radiotherapy following breast conservation surgery for breast cancer patients. However, the …

PURPOSE: To assess the potential dosimetric advantages and drawbacks of photon beams
(modulated or not), electron beams (EB), and protons as a boost for the tumor bed in deep …
