Validation of a DNA methylation classifier hypoxia-M as prognosticator for patients with postoperative radiochemotherapy in head and neck cancer. @dkfz.bsky.social #radonc www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Another dataset on the potential of xenografts as valuable models for the development of biomarkers for individualized radiotherapy - along with the robustness of biomarkers predicting local control in xenografts (IR+Cetux) and in patients (radiochemo). www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

In pediatric diffuse midline glioma/diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, craniospinal spread is a frequent cause of death. Here, safety of combining craniospinal irradiation with temozolomide is shown, informing future clinical trial design (e.g., SIOPE HGG-01). www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Independent validation of NTCP models for predicting radiation induced contrast enhancements after proton therapy - increased periventricular radiosensitivity. Variable RBE clinically relevant, consideration will further improve safety of proton radiotherapy. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

💪 Selbstwirksam aktiv gegen #RechteRaumnahme durch #Reichsbürger ! Unser Beratungsfall aus #Halsbrücke #Sachsen ist ein schönes Beispiel dafür, wie zivilgesellschaftliches Engagement gg #Rechtsextremismus in langfristiges, konstruktives Engagement für #Demokratie münden kann.

After brain irradiation, microglia density increases with dose, more in the periventricular region. Correlation with contrast enhancementin MRI -- potential mechanism of brain necrosis. #RadOnc @hzdr.bsky.social @oncoalert.bsky.social www.ctro.science/article/S240...

Zum ersten Mal hybrid Fortbildung für Patientenvertreter und Interessierte auf dem #DEGRO Kongress. Danke den ca 80 Teilnehmer:innen, davon 40 vor Ort. Und den Mitorganisatoren. @dkfz.bsky.social

Danke an die co-Kongresspräsidentinnen Esther Troost und Andrea Wittig und die Kongress- Koordinatorin Katja Storch #DEGRO

Der #DEGRO Kongress geht heute zuende. Sehr spannende Sitzung: was können wir eigentlich aus welchen Studien schlussfolgern?

Vienna outside of the conference Center 😊 #ESTRO25

Two of the talks in the best papers session came from Dresden. Congratulations Martina Palkowitsch, PhD student, and Annett Linge, clinician scientist. #ESTRO25 #radonc

I’m SO delighted to finally see first STAR-TREC data reported 🤩 #ESTRO25 Short course RT vs chemorad for organ preservation in early stage rectal cancer 61% vs 80% TME-free survival at 12 months ➡️ More organ preservation with long-course chemorad! #radonc #rectalcancer

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

Congratulations Michael Baumann @dkfz.bsky.social to the Jens Overgaard Legacy Award #ESTRO25 #RadOnc

Birgitte Offersen showing the results of Skagen1 trial - hypofx vs conventional RT in high risk breast cancer patients with indication for lymphnode irradiation. Same side effects, same local control but worse survival. Due to lower RT dose? #ESTRO25 #RadOnk

At Sep 7th 1953 the first patient hast received radiotherapy with a linear accelerator. Sept 7th, 2025 will be the world radiotherapy awareness day. Safe and effektive treatment to cure cancer. Equal access worldwide still a problem.

Great and much needed trial, looking forward the tumor outcome

RACE-GB, the first ever phase 3 randomized study showing overall survival improvement from chemotherapy combined with #radiation for gallbladder cancer. Article: www.redjournal.org/article/S036... Podcast: www.redjournal.org/audio-do/red...

The INSEMA trial involving patients with clinically node-negative, T1 breast cancer showed that the omission of axillary surgery was noninferior to sentinel-lymph-node biopsy. Full trial results and Research Summary: nej.md/41o5L0Z #MedSky #Oncology

The bird people seemed very excited about this study. #IJROBP #radonc www.redjournal.org/article/S036...

This morning, the US National Science Foundation fired 168 employees, approximately 10% of its workforce, for no cause other than they were the agency's most recent hires. 🧪 Co-workers are leaving supportive messages before they have to clear out of the building at 5 p.m. Sent to me by a source ⬇️
