Mathematical modeling of meningioma volume change after radiation treatment.

Objective: Meningiomas are the most common primary central nervous tumor and are often treated with radiation therapy. This study examines the long-term volumetric changes of intracranial meningiomas in response to radiation therapy. The objective is to analyze and model the volumetric changes following treatment.

Biochemical Safety of SBRT to Multiple Intrahepatic Lesions for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Background: We aim to better characterize stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)-related hepatic biochemical toxicity in patients with multiple intrahepatic lesions from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with HCC who underwent SBRT for 2 or more synchronous or metachronous liver lesions. We collected patient characteristics and dosimetric data (mean liver dose [MLD], cumulative effective volume [Veff], cumulative volume of liver receiving 15 Gy [V15Gy], and cumulative planning target volume [PTV]) along with liver-related toxicity (measured by albumin-bilirubin [ALBI] and Child-Pugh [CP] scores).

The Effect of Radiation on Meningioma Volume Change.

Background: Radiation therapy is a common treatment for meningiomas. Volume changes of meningiomas in response to radiation are not well characterized. This study seeks to quantify the volume change of meningiomas following radiation.
