Predicting personalised and progressive adaptive dose escalation to gross tumour volume using knowledge-based planning models for inoperable advanced-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with volumetric modulated arc therapy (2022)
Journal Article
Tambe, N., Pires, I. M., Moore, C., Wieczorek, A., Upadhyay, S., & Beavis, A. (2022). Predicting personalised and progressive adaptive dose escalation to gross tumour volume using knowledge-based planning models for inoperable advanced-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with volumetric modulated arc therapy. Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 8(3), Article 035001. https://doi.org/10.1088/2057-1976/ac56eb

Objectives: Increased radiation doses could improve local control and overall survival of lung cancer patients, however, this could be challenging without exceeding organs at risk (OAR) dose constraints especially for patients with advanced-stage dis...

Predicting personalised optimal arc parameter using knowledge-based planning model for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer patients to reduce organ at risk doses (2021)
Journal Article
Tambe, N. S., Pires, I. M., Moore, C., Wieczorek, A., Upadhyay, S., & Beavis, A. W. (2021). Predicting personalised optimal arc parameter using knowledge-based planning model for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer patients to reduce organ at risk doses. Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 7(6), Article 065016. https://doi.org/10.1088/2057-1976/ac2635

Objectives. Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) allows for reduction of organs at risk (OAR) volumes receiving higher doses, but increases OAR volumes receiving lower radiation doses and can subsequently increasing associated toxicity. Therefore,... Read More about Predicting personalised optimal arc parameter using knowledge-based planning model for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer patients to reduce organ at risk doses.

Validation of in-house knowledge-based planning model for predicting change in target coverage during VMAT radiotherapy to in-operable advanced-stage NSCLC patients (2021)
Journal Article
Tambe, N. S., Pires, I. M., Moore, C., Wieczorek, A., Upadhyay, S., & Beavis, A. W. (2021). Validation of in-house knowledge-based planning model for predicting change in target coverage during VMAT radiotherapy to in-operable advanced-stage NSCLC patients. Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 7(6), https://doi.org/10.1088/2057-1976/ac1f94

Objectives. anatomical changes are inevitable during the course of radiotherapy treatments and, if significant, can severely alter expected dose distributions and affect treatment outcome. Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) is employed to maintain the plann...
