1. Searching for the optimal radiotherapy treatment time, dose and fractionation - the role of hypoxia and reoxygenation : A modelling study
Sammanfattning : The search for the optimal choice of treatment time, dose and fractionation regimen is one of the major challenges in radiation therapy. Several aspects of the radiation response of tumours and normal tissues give different indications of how the parameters defining a fractionation schedule should be altered relative to each other which often results in contradictory conclusions.

2. Time, dose and fractionation: accounting for hypoxia in the search for optimal radiotherapy treatment parameters
Sammanfattning : The search for the optimal choice of treatment time, dose and fractionation regimen is one of the major challenges in radiation therapy. Several aspects of the radiation response of tumours and normal tissues give different indications of how the parameters defining a fractionation schedule should be altered relative to each other which often results in contradictory conclusions.

3. The virtual tumour - in silico modelling of tumour vasculature, oxygenation and treatment outcome
Sammanfattning : Poor tumour oxygenation, namely hypoxia, is one of the major challenges that has been recognised in radiotherapy, yet it is not being accounted for in standard treatments. Hypoxia, resulting from a heterogeneous distribution of vessels (chronic hypoxia) or of a loss in vascular perfusion (acute hypoxia), affects all kinds of solid tumours to different extents. LÄS MER
