Helical versus static approaches to delivering tomotherapy to the junctional target for patients taller than 135 cm undergoing total body irradiation

Muemtaz Koeksal et al.

Summary: This study compared the radiation coverage of the junctional target between helical and static approaches for total body irradiation. The results showed that the static four-field box approach offered higher robustness against lateral movement of the patient for patients with a total body irradiation length of less than 135 cm.

Total body irradiation using helical tomotherapy: Set-up experience and in-vivo dosimetric evaluation

J. P. Cleuziou et al.

Summary: This study describes the implementation of total body irradiation (TBI) treatment in an institution from October 2016 to March 2019, focusing on treatment preparation, planning, and dosimetric monitoring. Various methods, including the use of physical phantoms and Gafchromic films, were employed to ensure dose distribution homogeneity and evaluate patient positioning impact, leading to strong consistency and reliability in the delivered doses.

Impact of Low-Dose Irradiation of the Lung and Heart on Toxicity and Pulmonary Function Parameters after Thoracic Radiotherapy

Christina Schroeder et al.

Summary: The study analyzed data from 62 patients who underwent thoracic radiotherapy, finding significant correlations between pulmonary function and dose parameters of the lung and heart. Low dose irradiation to the lung and heart had a lasting impact on DLCO after thoracic radiotherapy, but no influence on radiation pneumonitis was observed.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia

John Han-Chih Chang et al.

Summary: Radiation therapy plays a crucial role in the treatment of children with ALL, mainly indicated for high-risk CNS involvement, testicular relapse, and conditioning for stem cell transplantation. Future research will focus on the indications and dosages of radiation therapy, as well as the development of novel radiation techniques.

Total Body Irradiation for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: What Can We Agree on?

Mitchell Sabloff et al.

Summary: Total body irradiation (TBI) plays a crucial role in hematopoietic cell transplantation by eliminating disease and suppressing the immune system to prevent rejection of donor cells. Compared to chemotherapy, TBI may offer greater tumor cytotoxicity and tissue penetration capabilities.
