Head and neck cancer poses a particular challenge in radiation therapy, whilst being an
effective treatment modality it requires very high doses of radiation to provide effective …

Mathematical models of normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) able to robustly
predict radiation-induced morbidities (RIM) play an essential role in the identification of a …

There has recently been an increasing interest in model-based evaluation and comparison
of different treatment options in radiation oncology studies. This is partly driven by the …

Objectives To investigate the rate and risk factors for developing hypothyroidism (HT) in
nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy …

Objective Breast cancer and breast cancer-directed radiation therapy (RT) may increase the
risk of late effects, such as hypothyroidism. We conducted a systematic review and meta …

This review aimed to provide an overview of the level of maturity of normal tissue
complication probability (NTCP) models for head and neck cancer (HNC) patients. A …

Radiotherapy (RT) technology and utilization has considerably evolved over the last 50
years in the management of pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). In response to significant …

This study aimed to compare the predictive performance of different modeling methods in
developing normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models for predicting radiation …

Aims To investigate dosimetric predictors of hypothyroidism after radical intensity-modulated
radiation therapy (IMRT) for non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Materials …

Background: Severe acute radiation-induced skin toxicity (RIST) after breast irradiation is a
side effect impacting the quality of life in breast cancer (BC) patients. The aim of the present …
