Mathematical models of normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) able to robustly
predict radiation-induced morbidities (RIM) play an essential role in the identification of a …

With increasing survival rates across all cancers, survivors represent a growing population
that is frequently affected by persistent or permanent hair growth disorders as a result of …

Purpose The aim of this study was to comprehensively review all studies examining clinical
outcomes of craniospinal irradiation with proton radiotherapy for medulloblastoma (MB) to …

Cancer is a major cause of childhood death, with central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms
being the second most common pediatric malignancy, following hematological cancer …

Importance Persistent radiation-induced alopecia (pRIA) and its management have not been
systematically described. Objective To characterize pRIA in patients with primary central …

Purpose Our aim was to review the advances in radiation therapy for the management of
pediatric cancers made by the Children's Oncology Group (COG) radiation oncology …

Because hair follicles (HFs) are highly sensitive to ionizing radiation, radiotherapy-induced
alopecia (RIA) is a core adverse effect of oncological radiotherapy. Yet, effective RIA …

alopecia nevertheless has an essential impact on the quality of life of patients, particularly in …

Purpose To develop normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models for radiation-
induced alopecia (RIA) in brain tumor patients treated with proton therapy (PT). Methods and …

Alopecia is a common sequela in children undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, and
