So honored to publish the results of our palliative RT lymphopenia study on the @IJROBP!

Thank you Dr. @LeilaTchelebi for your guidance and our fabulous team at @NorthwellHealth that made this work possible!

New in the @IJROBP : breast RT + SIB in 5 fractions, with low objective late side effects at 5 years.

Congratulations to Maia Dzhugashvili this paper forms part of her PhD thesis and all coauthors!

#ProtonBeamTherapy has received so much visibility in recent times so this issue in the RedJ @ASTRO_org is timely edited by @sueyom Dave Carlson

Thanks for the opportunity to share our experience with PBT for #NasopharyngealCarcinoma @NCCS_SG where we have treated ~250 patients to date 💪💪 We share specific scenarios where PBT is efficacious and where caution must be exercised @lachiemcd @imrtlee @mikemejiamd @seanmmcbride @xrtGenomics @DavidSherMD @DrDThomson @EChrisDee @emmaruoyii

Our commentary @IJROBP on virtual care in #radonc in response to @CShahMD's thoughtful piece.

A few points to emphasize. A brief 🧵

First, it is important to define the regulatory landscape and separate two concepts that are too often collapsed: supervised technical services versus the radiation oncologist’s personal performance of professional services.

Radoncs supervise the services delivered by RTTs. When we talk about supervision, this is the type of activity that is being supervised.

In contrast, evaluating, adjusting, and signing CBCTs prior to SBRT, on-treatment management, plan evaluations, etc are the professional services radoncs perform.

An important threshold question: does federal law permit virtual supervision and virtual performance of professional activities?

Collecting longitudinal PROs difficult - congrats @KrishanJethwa et al!

Acute PROs favored short course but no long term dif (reassuring re: hypofrac).

In @IJROBP, the PURSUE trial set pathology-verified criteria for reading 18F-fluciclovine PET after brain metastasis radiation, with visual reads best at 15 to 25 minutes. More from @RadiologyUcla's Dr. Whitney Pope & collaborators: https://t.co/FrhEHYmlku

@barrosonco @ASTRO_org @SarriaGustavo Esto hay que decirlo en criollo: un Crack, un fenómeno. 👏 🥇

Anthony Zietman gave us an incredibly inspiring talk about his experience as Editor-in-Chief of the Red Journal.

@IJROBP especially the stories behind bringing art and the human side of medicine into the #RedJournal

[Henning Willers, MD, FASTRO @HenningWillers]

Catching up....#ASTRO26

Wonderful, inspiring session on #RedJournal poetry, arts, and humanism. So well done @sueyom 👍🙏
And it was packed!!!

[Dr Alex Stewart 💙 @brachyexpert]

My favourite session so far at #ASTRO26 important for us and our patients to stop for a moment and introduce art into our lives with great respect to the @IJROBP for developing this

[Shraddha Dalwadi, MD, MBA @loveandmedicine]

Thank you to Dr.@sueyom and @IJROBP for the opportunity to discuss our paper! Honored is an understatement. 😊 #ASTRO26
