Medical physics

Yin L, Vapiwala N, Swisher-McClur S, Bui V, Deville C, Tochner Z, Both S.
PMID: 28518906
Med Phys. 2012 Jun;39(6):3687-3688. doi: 10.1118/1.4734991.

PURPOSE: Post-prostatectomy patients may be treated with endorectal balloon (ERB) placed during the radiation therapy. The objectives of this tudy are to investigate geometrical variation of organs at risk (OAR) and CTVs (based on RTOG and EORTC guidelines) throughout...

Patient initiation of complementary and alternative medical therapies (CAM) following cancer diagnosis.

Cancer journal (Sudbury, Mass.)

Vapiwala N, Mick R, Hampshire MK, Metz JM, DeNittis AS.
