Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) provides greater benefits than intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) regarding dosimetric outcomes in patients with cervical cancer. To investigate the clinical benefits of ART, we have collected data from 115 cervical cancer patients who underwent radical radiotherapy at our institution. Fifty-nine patients received a single course of IMRT.

Purpose: This systematic review aimed to assess the updated literature for the prevention of salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia induced by non-surgical cancer therapies.
Methods: Electronic databases of MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) that investigated interventions to prevent salivary gland hypofunction and/or xerostomia. Literature search began from the 2010 systematic review publications from the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer/International Society of Oral Oncology (MASCC/ISOO) up to February 2024.

Purpose: In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and incidence of radiation-induced brain necrosis (RBN) after volumetric modulated arc therapy-based stereotactic irradiation (VMAT-STI) for brain metastases.
Methods: In the 220 brain metastatic lesions included between January 2020 and June 2022, there were 1-9 concurrently treated lesions (median 1). A biologically effective dose (BED)10 of 80 Gy and a reduced BED10 of 50 Gy were prescribed to the gross tumor volume (GTV) and planning target volume (PTV) (PTV = GTV + 3 mm) margins, respectively.

Background: Radiation therapy (RT) is a standard treatment for non-metastatic breast cancer and is associated with acute and late toxicities. Intensity-modulated RT (IMRT) may decrease toxicity and is convenient for patients.
Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of IMRT in women with early stage breast cancer.

Purpose: Chronoradiobiology has emerged as a potential field of study with therapeutic implications for cancer treatment. We aimed to investigate the association between radiation chronotherapy and the efficacy and toxicity of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
Patients And Methods: Patients with nonmetastatic NPC treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy in Fujian Cancer Hospital between January 2017 and December 2019 were included.
