Fall 2022
Dynamic tumour-tracked radiotherapy is a promising method for delivering conformal doses to tumours that exhibit a large degree of motion as a result of patient respiration. However, there exists an inevitable latency between the acquisition of an image of a moving tumour and the adaptation of...

A promising approach to the development of an integrated system for magnetic resonance imaging-guided radiotherapy involves the rigid coupling of a medical linear accelerator to a rotating biplanar magnet assembly. Through near real-time volumetric imaging during irradiation, this hybrid system...

Regulation of collagen type I production by ionizing radiation and transforming growth factor-β1 in primary human skin fibroblasts derived from early stage breast cancer patients in relation to acute radiation-induced toxicity
DownloadFall 2011
Regulation of collagen type I (CI) in fibroblasts is critical for the onset and development of skin toxicities induced by radiation therapy (RT). Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promote CI synthesis, while its degradation is modulated by...

Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (qMRI) is occupying an increasingly prominent role in the study of the brain, by virtue of its sensitivity to physiological and anatomical changes. However, because qMRI techniques tend to suffer from long scan durations and/or post-processing times, as...
