Accurate segmentation of cardiac chambers and substructures is fundamental for quantifying radiation exposure and studying late cardiovascular side-effects in children receiving thoracic radiotherapy. Manual segmentation is time consuming and subject to inter-observer variability, therefore limiting its use in ca...

Radical radiotherapy is delivered with curative intent in approximately 40% of patients with lung cancer.

As clinical equipoise precludes randomisation to different cardiac dose l...

Overall survival was poorer in patients with cardiac comorbidity than in those without, particularly among those receiving a higher CAA dose, while absolute survival estimates suggested a clinically meaningful benefit of lower CAA dose among patients with pre-existing CVD, supporting the potential importance of CAA min...
