Is hypofractionated WPRT safe in high-ish risk prostate cancer patients treated with HDR-BT boost? Check out the HOPE-Trial below! To our knowledge, this is the first RCT investigating this question. rdcu.be/b8jLy Dr Kevin Martell Glenn Bauman, MD George Rodrigues @axarifin



Great translational study led by stellar Dr Stanley Liu lab that adds to the literature by suggesting that HDR-BT induces different immune activation to EBRT in G9 PCa. This could be one of the explanations for early MFS curve separation in previous analysis. thegreenjournal.com/article/S0167-…

Check out our new paper on ISBT in vaginal primaries. A Combined analysis of LHSC and Sunnybrook patients and likely the biggest analysis on vaginal cancers treated with 3D ISBT. Great job Chris Goodman! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


Any consideration Dr. Andrew Loblaw Gerard Morton?


Great discussion. Thank you for the invitation Curietherapi.es. Too bad the meeting was not presencial (due to obvious reasons)

Exactly 70 years ago the so called “Cobalt Bomb” treated the first cancer patient here at Victoria Hospital, here in London, Canada. Millions of cancer patients have benefited from this technology since then. Celebrating this event by enjoying a cool cookie London Health Sciences Centre
