An intriguing poster at #ASTRO25 demonstrates that major North American TV Shows are leading viewers to believe radiation might cause "internal melting, burning, or crumbling, or even a food allergy". @ASTRO_org@PRJeffWhite@NehaVapiwala@sueyom https://t.co/r6yOOgQrJ0
It’s been a busy (& tough at times) past 3 weeks. My brain tumour continues to grow & now is involving both left & right sides of my brain. A right side focus is both hotter and bigger so I have been receiving bilateral radiotherapy for 3 weeks (on Monday to Friday). I’m a bit “zonked” but otherwise feeling fine. The team tells me that it could take a few weeks to recover from (good luck holding me back 😜)!
Special thanks for the many amazing people who, with great passion, are providing me & my close family and friends with excellent care. My medical team continue to provide fantastic care including Neuro-oncologist Helen Wheeler, Radiation Oncologist Michael Back, Clinical Care Neuro-oncology Coordinator Marina Kastelan and Neuro-radiologist Jamie Drummond. Both Katie & I really appreciate the support we receive from the medical team and our family (son Matt is in the first photo with me) and friends xxxxxooooo!!

This Robin Williams thread will brighten up your day 🧵
1. His improvised scene in Good Will Hunting made the cameraman laugh so hard the camera started shaking. Matt Damon's reaction is authentic.
Reducing dose to OARs, especially to the vaginal wall, without compro- mising the dose coverage of the target volumes carries itself the promise of reducing the development of rectal fistula and vaginal stenosis, and therefore contribute to preservation

Excellent discussion by @Silke_Gillessen@BertrandTOMBAL on intermittent ADT/ARPI in hormone naïve metastatic #prostatecancer at @GETUG_Unicancer research days.
New trials needed, especially for patients with deep PSA response (<0,2 ng/ml) after dual ADT/ARPI.
