Craniospinal irradiation as part of re-irradiation for children with recurrent medulloblastoma
BackgroundMany studies have demonstrated in the last years that once medulloblastoma has recurred, the probability of regaining tumor control is poor...

Pattern of care for re-irradiation in locally recurrent rectal cancer: a national survey on behalf of the AIRO gastrointestinal tumors study group
PurposeRadical resection (R0) represents the best curative treatment for local recurrence (LR) rectal cancer. Re-irradiation (re-RT) can increase the...

[18F]-FDG PET and MRI radiomic signatures to predict the risk and the location of tumor recurrence after re-irradiation in head and neck cancer
PurposeTo evaluate whether radiomics from [18F]-FDG PET and/or MRI before re-irradiation (reRT) of recurrent head and neck cancer (HNC) could predict...
