A real labour of love, but here it is. #Hypoxia is complex. Does it interact with ADT? Can it predict poor outcomes after long-term follow up? As @ProstateUKProfs say, grab a ☕ & have a read👇🏽 @UoM_DCS @MCRCnews @Niluja5 @CatharineWest3 @DrSpratticus @ChristieLibrary
Can we measure hypoxia to predict how men will respond to #prostatecancer treatments? A team led by @CatharineWest3 and @achoud72 from @UoM_DCS examine this question in a new study in @IJROBP Grab a ☕ and read: https://t.co/wDU7AsTXGs

Frailty frameworks and working on different approaches to measure frailty with tools such as ELFI and Fried's frailty index. Use of https://t.co/GjqF0i5DyC can help guide the best tool to use. @KhengSoo1 summarises best approaches for gerionc clinical trials. @SIOGorg #SIOG2024

Australian rad onc @lucindamorris23 highlighted advances in hypofractionation & use of SABR in oligometastases and primary disease positively impacts older patients with cancer both from curative & palliative perspectives. Referrals to rad onc need to improve. @SIOGorg #SIOG2024

Wise words fr legendary Howard Sandler @ASTRO_org today 🇺🇸 Top tips for #radonc 1. Challenge the cliche ‘cystectomy is the gold standard’ for curative tmt of bladder cancer. It’s not. 2. Know your go-to karaoke song just in case you need it! 🎤🎵

Worried about toxicity with adjuvant RT post-cystectomy? @VedangMurthy presents #BART trial toxicity results. There is no significant difference. These are high risk patients, 70% had NAC. Paper in @IJROBP Take home to surgeons/radoncs - Don't worry! 👏🏽 @docpriyamvada #ASTRO24
