Nina Niu Sanford Highlights RAPIDO Data on IMRT Toxicity

Nina Niu Sanford, Associate Professor at UT Southwestern Medical Center , shared on X about a recent paper by Max D. Tanaka et al. published in International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics:

Table summarizes studies of 3D v IMRT in rectal cancer – with RAPIDO, data mixed.
Caveat that RAPIDO didn’t require OAR delineation/ specify constraints, but good reminder that advanced tech doesn’t guarantee better outcomes.”
