Toxicity and Dosimetric Parameters of Ablative Radiation Therapy in the Management of Patients with Child-Pugh B/C Liver Function and Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC).

Conference International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics · November 2021 Purpose/objective(s)To date there is no clear standard non-surgical therapeutic option for HCC patients. Ablative radiation therapy (SBRT/HIGRT) is an emerging non-invasive treatment for patients with HCC. However, there is concern about the risk ... Full text Cite

Evolving role of an oncology telehealth nurse at an NCI-designated cancer institute.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · October 1, 2021 277 Background: Oncology telehealth (TH) services may improve access, mitigate care delays, and augment care in select settings. However, logistical and workflow barriers hinder the sustainable adoption of TH services by provider ... Full text Cite

Impact of machine learning-directed on-treatment evaluations on cost of acute care visits: Economic analysis of SHIELD-RT.

Conference Journal of Clinical Oncology · May 20, 2021 1509 Background: SHIELD-RT was a randomized controlled quality improvement study (NCT03775265) that implemented electronic health record-based machine learning (ML) to direct supplemental visits for high risk (HR) patients underg ...
