Bobby Koneru: First Modern American Case Series on Treating Osteoarthritis with Low-Dose Radiotherapy

Bobby Koneru, President and Radiation Oncologist at POG and Affiliate Faculty at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine, shared a post on X about an article he and his colleagues authored:

“I’m excited to share that our publication of the first modern American case series for the treatment of Osteoarthritis (OA) with Low Dose Radiotherapy (LDRT) is now published and available online in the red journal. The American patient population differs significantly from European and Asian populations in terms of obesity prevalence, dietary patterns, and lifestyle factors.
This paper is the first of its kind to report an American patient population treated with LDRT utilizing modern field design, dosing, and treatment schedules allowing for a second course. I would like to thank William Small Jr. and Richard Shaffer for their guidance.
Our program at FHN has now treated over 250 OA patients over the past 2 years. I’m inspired everyday by the impact LDRT has done for our community and patients.”
