@jryckman3 Not sure if I was the only one getting a 404 with the review link. I assumed it was AD’s review, so the link is below.

🚨The first American guidelines for low-dose radiotherapy in osteoarthritis were just published.
That’s not a small thing.
For decades, European centers have been treating OA with low-dose RT. American patients largely couldn’t access it. No formal guidance. No insurer framework. No roadmap for referring providers.
That changes today.
The American Radium Society Appropriate Use Criteria, published in the American Journal of Clinical Oncology, define exactly when and how to use LDRT for OA. Radiation oncologists, rheumatologists, physiatrists, and orthopedic surgeons built this together.
For insurers, this is the clinical framework they’ve been waiting for.
Honored to be a co-author alongside the global experts who made this possible.
@jryckman3 Great thread Jeff! Curious, if such a convention were to be implemented in a hospital system, there is bound to be a learning curve for non-oncologic services to understand what they’re looking at. How do you envision helping these teams interpret these images?
@DrSpratticus@piet_ost@jryckman3@VedangMurthy Having neither attended ESTRO nor seen pictures of the slides, I can’t speak to OS. Is there a biologically plausible mechanism that would cause adding pelvic RT to result in inferior OS?
PFS CIs suggest true difference is possible, but agree data to date most supports PO

Congrats to the authors on an important randomized phase 3 trial in a tough, cisplatin-ineligible population 👏
Let’s walk through it 👇
So proud to see our PD get recognized for some of the incredible work he has done in his (still early) career. Brilliant physician and altogether wonderful person
Congratulations to Samuel Marcrom, M.D., on his President’s Corner feature with @ASTRO_org. His work at @uabheersink Dept. of Radiation Oncology is shaping the future of radiation oncology!

Honored to host visiting professor Dr. Neil Desai from UT Southwestern at @UABRadOnc—an absolute masterclass on the now and next of prostate cancer care: smarter imaging, refined dosing, and shared decision-making. Thank you for raising the bar! #ProstateCancer#RadOnc@ndesai2005
"We might have blown off a bit of artery with radiation - we do that sometimes, we're silly gooses - and since you might have a wee bit of exploded artery, I'm going to do an EKG, which is the gold standard next step in the management of exploded artery."
👏 dear authors, for reminding @ASTRO_org & each of us of our responsibility to demystify RT & tackle dangerous misinformation, hiding in plain sight. RadOnc excels in scientific exploration - it’s past time for a better approach to disseminating it. Data to dialogue #astro2026
🚨Happening NOW at UAB: Kicking off an outstanding adaptive radiation therapy seminar before heading to #ASCO25! First up—Dr. Lauren Henke breaking down the future of individualized treatment in real-time. Incredible science, inspiring discussion. Let’s go! 💥📡@ONealCancerUAB
X-torial: Cleaning up the misinformation about @JoeBiden and #ProstateCancer that I am reading everywhere.
