Testicular cancer is a rare but curable male malignancy. Seminoma represents the majority of germ cell tumors and is considered radiation sensitive. Radiation treatment plays a role in adjuvant therapy after orchiectomy of stage I, IIA, and IIB seminomas.

Develop a prototype on-line positron emission tomography (PET) scanner and evaluate its capability of on-line imaging and intra-fractionated proton-induced radioactivity range measurement.Each detector consists of 32 × 32 array of 2 × 2 × 30 mmLutetium-Yttrium Oxyorthosilicate scintillators with single-scintillator-end readout through a 20 × 20 array of 3 × 3 mmSilicon Photomultipliers. The PET can be configurated with a full-ring of 20 detectors for conventional PET imaging or a partial-ring of 18 detectors for on-line imaging and range measurement.

Purpose: To assess any correlation between swallowing dysfunction and radiation dose to 5 subregions of the larynx.
Methods And Materials: A cohort of 136 patients with head and neck cancer, treated with either photon or proton radiation therapy, was assessed using an endpoint of patient-reported swallowing scores, evaluated with the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-H&N35 survey, within 1 month after treatment. Five subregions of the larynx were contoured, and dosimetric metrics were extracted for each subregion as well as the total larynx.
