Abstract

Evidence is accumulating that radiotherapy of non-small cell lung cancer patients can be optimized by escalating the tumour dose until the normal tissue tolerances are met. To further improve the therapeutic ratio between tumour control probability and the risk of normal tissue complications, we firstly need to exploit inter patient variation. This variation arises, e.g. from differences in tumour shape and size, lung function and genetic factors. Secondly improvement is achieved by taking into account intra-tumour and intra-organ heterogeneity derived from molecular and functional imaging. Additional radiation dose must be delivered to those parts of the tumour that need it the most, e.g. because of increased radio-resistance or reduced therapeutic drug uptake, and away from regions inside the lung that are most prone to complication. As the delivery of these treatments plans is very sensitive for geometrical uncertainties, probabilistic treatment planning is needed to generate robust treatment plans. The administration of these complicated dose distributions requires a quality assurance procedure that can evaluate the treatment delivery and, if necessary, adapt the treatment plan during radiotherapy.

Cancer Imaging

Imaging techniques, including CT and MR, have become essential to tumor detection, diagnosis, and monitoring. Here is the latest research on cancer imaging.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
