Quality assurance in breast cancer brachytherapy: Geographic miss in the interstitial boost treatment of the tumor bed
Felix Sedlmayer,H. Rahim,H.Dieter Kogelnik,Christian Menzel,Florian Merz,Heinz Deutschmann,Manfred Kranzinger +6 more
TL;DR: Breast implants have a high potential of geographic misses that can be avoided by intraoperative clip demarcation and modern afterloading techniques offer possibilities of individual dose planning with regard to high risk subvolumes within the implanted tissue.

Intraoperative radiotherapy given as a boost after breast-conserving surgery in breast cancer patients.
Roland Reitsamer,Florentia Peintinger,Felix Sedlmayer,M. Kopp,C. Menzel,W. Cimpoca,S. Glueck,H. Rahim,Peter Kopp,Heinz Deutschmann,Florian Merz,M. Brandis,H.D. Kogelnik +12 more
TL;DR: Preliminary data suggest that IORT given as a boost after breast-conserving surgery could be a reliable alternative to conventional postoperative fractionated boost radiation by accurate dose delivery and avoiding geographical misses, by enabling smaller treatment volumes and complete skin-sparing and by reducing postoperative radiation time by 7-14 days.

[Long-term tumor control and fertility after para-aortic limited radiotherapy of stage I seminoma].
TL;DR: The aim is to review patterns of relapse in a long-term analysis of patients with Stage I seminoma treated by orchidectomy and radiotherapy to the paraaortic nodes only and to follow follicle stimulating hormone.

Radiotherapy for lung cancer: target splitting by asymmetric collimation enables reduction of radiation doses to normal tissues and dose escalation
Karl Wurstbauer,Heinz Deutschmann,Manfred Kranzinger,Florian Merz,H. Rahim,Felix Sedlmayer,H.Dieter Kogelnik +6 more
TL;DR: The technique of target splitting by asymmetric collimation helps to increase conformation, and thus enhances the sparing of normal tissues, in the primary radiotherapy of non-small cell lung cancer.

Inadequacy of conventional computerized tomography scans for treatment planning of tangential breast (chest wall) fields
TL;DR: Treatment-planning scans obtained by TAT (transverse analog tomography) do not have the crucial positioning problems of conventional CT scanners and enable the precise transformation of a valid isodose distribution to each patient.
