- Individual and synergistic effects of male external genital traits in sexual selectionAbstract Male genital traits exhibit extraordinary inter‐specific phenotypic variation. This remarkable and general evolutionary trend is widely considered to be the result of sexual selection. However, we still do not have a good understanding of whether or how individual genital traits function in different competitive arenas (episodes of sexual selection), or how different genital traits may interact to influence competitive outcomes. Here, w

- Image registration, contour propagation and dose accumulation of external beam and brachytherapy in gynecological radiotherapyIn modern radiotherapy (RT), several imaging modalities are used during the treatment planning process e.g. Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as well as throughout the course of treatment (e.g. Cone Beam CT). To combine the information from these multiple images image registration is performed [1].
- Immuno-radiotherapy with cetuximab and avelumab for advanced stage head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: Results from a phase-I trialHead and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer and affects 550,000 patients worldwide every year [1]. In advanced-stage disease, the standard of care is chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with concurrent cisplatin for organ preservation. However, this treatment is accompanied by more than 80% severe acute toxicity [2,3] and a subgroup of patients is not fit for cisplatin treatment because of comorbidities. For these patients,
- Multiple-CT optimization: An adaptive optimization method to account for anatomical changes in intensity-modulated proton therapy for head and neck cancersWe aimed to determine whether multiple-CT (MCT) optimization of intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) could improve plan robustness to anatomical changes and therefore reduce the additional need for adaptive planning.
- MRI assisted focal boost integrated with HDR monotherapy study in low and intermediate risk prostate cancer (MARS): Results from a phase II clinical trialThere is now clear evidence of improved biochemical disease free survival (bDFS) with radiotherapy dose-escalation in all prostate cancer (PCa) risk groups [1,2]. Despite the advent of new techniques, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is limited in dose escalation due to the continuous change in the position, shape and volume of the target volume as well as the organs at risk (OARs). High-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR) is a recommended treatment o
