@subatomicdoc @LiveringhouseCL @PercyLeeMD @finn_corinne @gerryhanna @bslotman @HenningWillers @DrLesterColl @drbeckta @JoeChangMD @cancerphysicist @jryckman3 @JAMAOnc They never should have drawn any conclusions about the lung V5 based upon a tiny retrospective analysis of 13 patients that did not even show statistical significance correlating the V5 with anything.

Our Delphi consensus-based approach included 83 thoracic radiation oncologists in at least one survey to create consensus-based OAR dose constraint and target goal templates for lung cancer radiation therapy. What do you think? What comes next? Link here: practicalradonc.org/article/S1879-……

👏🏽Take a bow 🙇🏼 @drjefstathiou Very clear results - no superiority of protons over photons for prostate cancer. Interesting - no benefit of spacer. We asked the Q, you gave us the answer! No protons for #prostatecancer Not cost-effective #ASTRO24 @ASTRO_org @IJROBP @ESTRO_RT

@yuanjamesrao There's one thing of which we can be confident, there is no number of negative proton trials for PCa that will dampen the enthusiasm of proton centers to aggressively market to patients.

49 - Risk of Radiation Myelitis after Hypofractionated Spine SBRT Amazing work, @Chris_JacksonMD! Any insight on 0.35-1.2cc? This data looks ideal to explore whether 18 Gy to 0.35 cc or 12.3-13 Gy to 1.2 cc (TG-101) are meaningful! @JAMRadOnc @NicholasZaorsky #ASTRO24 #radonc

15 fx protons for PMRT is also a dud 50/25, RBE 1.1 vs 40.05/15 RBE 1.1 proton PMRT Primary endpoint: 2-year complication rate, non-inferiority, 10% NI margin Results: one-sided 95% CI 18.5 👎 Why use protons at all in this setting? I don’t get it 🤷‍♂️ #ASTRO24

Lucky to have seen first hand the tremendous work of this #radonc team. Thank you @MeritxellMolla for taking the time to show us your busy facility and share ideas. I’m still so jealous of your busy orthovoltage skin cancer service, your patients are very fortunate!

@5_utr @ASTRO_org Agree, V5 should be informational, not aspirational. "Aspirational" implies extreme measures, like 90-degree couch kicks to achieve lung V5 targets, which isn't practical and ends up dumping dose in the heart instead of the lungs. We’re considering shifting to "LungV5@" on…

Disappointed to see v5Gy in new @ASTRO_org constraint recommendation for lung - this strikes me as a good example of a negative value constraint that can lead to worse plans than if v5 isn’t even looked at; also brachial plexus differs from current NCCN standard

I can already sense a rant from @jryckman3 about lung V5. When optimizing a plan with V5 metrics, should be low priority
