Using implanted collagen tiles during #brain #surgery, a new kind of #radiationtherapy (TBRT) could significantly lower the risk of recurrence in brain #metastases, a new study led by 🇺🇸 @mdanderson.bsky.social, presented at #ASTRO26, finds. #TBRT

After treatment for #SCLC #lungcancer, patients often undergo prophylactic #radiotherapy to prevent #metastases in the brain. Now, a new study presented by Chad Rusthoven, MD, from 🇺🇸 @cumedicalschool.bsky.social at @iaslc.bsky.social's #WCLC26, shows that #MRI surveillance alone is enough.

#WeekendRead! #WeAreWhatWeEat! @swagatag.bsky.social Yilmaz &co show @science.org that high fat diet drives ceramide accumulation in colorectal cancer #CRC cells which activate PP2A, driving #YAP regenerative/fetal transcriptional programs required for CRC liver #metastases, not primary tumors!

Even in the absence of prophylactic central neck dissection to remove #metastases, clinically detected recurrence in lymph nodes occurs in fewer than 10% of patients [with papillary #thyroid #cancer], which explains the controversy surrounding the procedure www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
