Excited to share the early feasibility and dosimetric results from our prospective trial of 5 fraction post-prostatectomy SBRT. CBCT based online adaptive treatment facilitated use of a modified reduced volume CTV and PTV (3 mm) w/many pts getting up LN and simultaneous boosts.
📌 Feasibility and Dosimetric Outcomes of CT-Based Daily Adaptive SABR in Patients Receiving Salvage Treatment for Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer
🔗 advancesradonc.org/article/S…
☢️Single-center phase II DAPPER study: 50 patients with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy received CT-based daily adaptive SABR to the prostate fossa ± pelvic nodes (5 fx).
👉 Feasibility: 98% of fractions (246/250).
👉 Plan selection: Adaptive plans selected in 89% of fractions.
👉 Dosimetric outcomes: Improved target coverage and reduce bowel and rectal V25Gy.

Can we use multi-stage pipeline integrating automatic speech recognition, speaker diarization and large language models to automate CTCAE scoring from ambient audio?
We sure can! 👇🏼👇🏼
Check out our department's new work!

Excited to see some votes coming in at the @ASTRO_org annual meeting. Be sure to share your thoughts, what one AI initiative would have the greatest impact?

Many reasons local rad onc centers are closing, but declining Medicare reimbursement is likely #1. Over the past decade, payment cuts have been ~2x greater for freestanding centers than hospitals. Many freestanding centers serve rural communities, impacting local access.
A new study in the #RedJournal found that 50 million Americans live in counties without a radiation oncology clinic.
As senior study author Kunal K. Sindhu, MD, explains: "The communities most vulnerable to losing radiation oncology access are often the same communities that already have fewer healthcare resources."

Last month, I gave a talk at the @MayoClinic VIBE Summit explaining the PSA Control Tower: a project we’ve been working on that uses AI to predict prostate cancer recurrence sooner, allowing more men to be treated before their cancer progresses. Watch: youtu.be/_JEeotclWu4?si=_8vi…

Powered by Mayo Clinic Platform, Mayo radiation oncologists have developed an intelligent monitoring tool called the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) Control Tower to support prostate cancer patients after treatment:

Huge congratulations to our entire team on the great work being done to translate meaningful AI into practice. Always nice to receive validation (and big checks are fun!) but we have much more work to do and many great things to come!
Replying to @AndrewFoongYK
One award was for the PSA Control Tower, an AI model that predicts prostate cancer recurrence, and another was for the Daily Dose, a daily LLM-generated summary email sent to all clinicians in Radiation Oncology. Many more projects are in the works, stay tuned!

I couldn't be more excited to see a rational payment system and path forward for #radonc proposed by @ASTRO_org. Better for practices, better for patients. Everything the RO Model wanted to be but never was. I hope congress will recognize the call to act @daveadler10 @HPAnnie2000
