After the protest by the #radonc community the The New York Times at least scaled down the headline by removing the term 'brutal'. Also very important is the inclusion of the ' could' ( conditional verb), which means that this can only happen under certain conditions ( average risk).

So great to see this study published - another exciting step toward more personalization of cancer care. Patients have options! RT still key in low rectal tumors for non-operative management.

🔖 Our latest research, led by Marina Moskalenko, MD is out in Current Oncology! We found that using fiducial markers in liver SBRT can aid in achieving more accurate and consistent treatment setups. Congrats to the whole team. Read the full study here: mdpi.com/1718-7729/30/5…

🏆 Excited to share I've been awarded an R50 from National Cancer Institute to support my work in cancer clinical trials at The Tisch Cancer Institute. Grateful for this opportunity to expand access to NCI-sponsored clinical trials to our patients: rb.gy/4he8x

Cape + MMC

🔵 Similar (~90%) 6m complete response
🔵 Less toxicity with de-intensification

Looking forward to maturation of LC/PFS!

Fantastic news for our patients and congrats to the investigators!!

When in Vienna, Radiation Oncologists go to the Opera! ⁦florencehuguet⁩ #ESTRO23

Couldn’t agree more Michael Chuong. Elective SBRT coverage I think has an important role when treating pancreatic cancer. Quite the opposite thinking than before when it was all about keeping target volumes as small and as tight as possible. Great work!

It’s always brilliant to see the STAR-TREC phase II data - here expertly presented by Prof Marijnen. Phase III is recruiting very well - with >210 pts randomised in 3 countries to the organ preservation arms #ESTRO2023 #rectalcancer #organpreservation

Can’t discuss GI cancers on an empty stomach!!😉
