HERMES: Randomised trial of 2-fraction or 5-fraction MRI-guided adaptive prostate radiotherapy To demonstrate safety and feasibility of 2-fraction stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer.This single centre, non-comparative, pha…

Excited to see the HERMES trial results in print www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Small trial but toxicity of 2 fractions looks promising at 24/27 Gy, no GI tox of G2 or higher out to 12 weeks @momentumstudy.bsky.social @icr.ac.uk

Exciting data presented in ESTRO 2025 plenary: 5 fraction adjuvant breast RT (26 Gy) at least as good (and possibly better?) than 15 fractions @icr.ac.uk #ESTRO2025

Ever wondered if urethral dose explained the differential GU toxicity by platform in PACE-B? It appears not- credit to Dr Ragu Ratnakumaran @ijrobp.bsky.social

ICYMI: *30* year outcomes from SPCG-4
dx.doi.org/10.1056/NEJM...

RP vs. WW for clinically detected #prostatecancer reduces CSM 48% and *ACM* by 26%. NNT down to 6. Clear benefit to treatment of clinically detectable disease if (and only if) your pt has a very long life expectancy. #pcsm

Urethra contouring on computed tomography urethrogram versus magnetic resonance imaging for stereotactic body radiotherapy in prostate cancer - PubMed Accurate urethra contouring is critical in prostate SBRT. We compared urethra contouring on CT-urethrogram and T2-weighted MRI. The dice similarity coefficient, Jaccard index, Hausdorff distance and m...
