Nicholas Hornstein, Gastrointestinal Medical Oncologist at Northwell Health, USA, shared a post on X, about a recent article he and his colleagues authored:

“Grateful to be included with this powerhouse group of radiology oncologists.

Our review in Seminars in Radiation Oncology looks at the rollercoaster history of adjuvant RT in resected pancreatic cancer:

Takeaways:
  • Node-negative patients may benefit most
  • RT quality assurance = critical
  • PREOPANC + RTOG 0848 are reshaping the field

All hail the powerful healing rays of radiation.”
