Impact of Self-Reported Exercise on Recounted Levels of Fatigue and Anxiety in Early-Stage Breast Cancer Radiation Therapy Patients.

Purpose: Exercise may be an alternative strategy to helping early-stage breast cancer (ESBC) patients manage their cancer-related fatigue and anxiety during radiation therapy. This observational study aims to investigate the impact of self-reported exercise on fatigue and anxiety levels pre (T0), mid (T1), and post (T2) radiation therapy in patients with ESBC.

Methods: Following informed consent, subjects completed three standardized questionnaires measuring physical activity, fatigue/quality of life, and anxiety at T0, T1, and T2.

Tumour-Targeted Treatment Intensification for Prostate Cancer Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging Guidance.

Introduction: Local control in prostate cancer may be improved with targeted dose escalation to regions with high tumour burden. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) combined with MRI-guided biopsies may aid in defining tumour-dense regions before radiation therapy. Deformable registration techniques may be used to map these tumour regions onto the radiotherapy planning MRI.
