Does muscle mass measured with Computed Tomography analysis differ in patients with different types of cancer?

Sealy, Martine (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Van den Broeck, Jona; Brussaard, Carola; Scafoglieri, Aldo; Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing)

Rationale: Patients with cancer of the upper gastrointestinal tract or lung are more likely to present with malnutrition at diagnosis than, for instance, patients with melanoma. Low muscle mass is an indicator of malnutrition and can be determined by computed tomography (CT) analysis of the skeletal …

The impact of anatomical changes during photon or proton based radiation treatment on tumor dose in glioblastoma dose escalation trials

Eline Hessen; Sebastian Makocki; Uulke A. van der Heide; Bas Jasperse; Lotte Lutkenhaus; Emmy Lamers (Lid Lectoraat); Eugene Damen; Esther G.C. Troost; Gerben R. Borst

Purpose/Objective: Most dose-escalation trials in glioblastoma patients integrate the escalated dose throughout the standard course by targeting a specific subvolume. We hypothesize that anatomical changes during irradiation may affect the dose coverage of this subvolume for both proton- and photon-based …

Are active interventions effective compared to passive non-pharmacological interventions in the treatment of sensory and motor symptoms and improving quality of life in patients diagnosed with chemotherapyinduced peripheral neuropathy?

Susan Schnitter (Student); Caspar Mijlius (Begeleider)

Cancer was diagnosed in 19.292.789 patients worldwide in 2020, depending on the type of cancer treatment may involve chemotherapy. If a neurotoxic agent is used, patients can develop chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) affecting 68% of patients within the first months of treatment. CIPN …

Accuracy of an MR‑only workflow for prostate radiotherapy using semi‑automatically burned‑in fiducial markers

Karin Goudschaal; F. Beeksma; M. Boon; M. Bijveld; J. Visser; K. Hinnen; Z. van Kesteren

Abstract Background: The benefit of MR-only workflow compared to current CT-based workflow for prostate radiotherapy is reduction of systematic errors in the radiotherapy chain by 2–3 mm. Nowadays, MRI is used for target delineation while CT is needed for position verification. In MR-only workflows, …

Impact of curative treatment on the physical fitness of patients with esophageal cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Elja A.E. Reijneveld (Onderzoeker); Petra Bor (Onderzoeker); Jaap J. Dronkers (Onderzoeker); Núria Argudo (Onderzoeker); Jelle P. Ruurda (Onderzoeker); Cindy Veenhof (Lector)

Background: Esophageal cancer and curative treatment have a significant impact on the physical fitness of patients. Knowledge about the course of physical fitness during neoadjuvant therapy and esophagectomy is helpful to determine the needs for interventions during and after curative treatment. This study …
