@_katelynatkins presenting on risk of pulmonary artery HTN after definitive RT. Dose to the PA predicts for PAH. We need to refine treatment planning to better spare heart🫀substructures! @Dr_RayMak

Terrific job by @_katelynatkins to identifyradiation induced pulmonary🫁hypertension as a conplication of #lungcancer #radiotherapy and dosimeteic predictors of it👏👏👏
Radiationplanning is becoming really complex - and benefitting our patients‼️🙏

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 @_katelynatkins Cardiac Substructure RT dose assoc with arrhythmia
👉🏽PV V5 ➡️ AFib
👉🏽L circumflex V35 ➡️ A flutter
👉🏽PV V55 ➡️ SVT
👉🏽 RCA V25 ➡️Bradyarrhythmia
👉🏽 L main CA V5 ➡️ VT/asystole

Just out @JACC CardioOncol, we intricately map #radiation exposure from #radiotherapy for #LCSM to different sub-structures of the heart to predict the risk of 5 different classes of #cardiac arrhythmias, pointing to possibly distinct pathophys pathways. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
And great editorial commentary by @gwalls89 and @Al_McWilliam

Thank you for the insightful discussion of our work and the state of the field!
We are indeed “past the point of no return” for mean heart dose…

@_katelynatkins & @Dr_RayMak take cardiac substructure-specific endpoint analysis to new heights in radiotherapy cardiotoxicity research!
@Al_McWilliam & myself provide some thoughts on the implications of this awesome paper in a linked editorial:

Glad I’m not the only one feeling exhausted from multi-D conferences @CSCancerCenter @_katelynatkins in @JAMANetworkOpen & how factors such as parenthood, gender, time, frequency, and specialty impact #burnout from #tumorboards jamanetwork.com/journals/jam… @TaraCohenPhD @SukiPaddaMD – at Los Angeles, CA
Women and parents report greater burden from early AM/late PM multi-disciplinary tumor boards. Radiologists, pathologists, those with ≥2 kids, or attending ≥3 hrs/wk of tumor boards report greater overall burden. ja.ma/3sduKVu @_katelynatkins @CedarsSinai

Out now in @JCO_ASCO!
Our work on clinical trial endpoints & inclusion criteria in GI oncology trials, and how we can better leverage RCTs to demonstrate the value of RT going forward.
With @whallradonc and @TedHong9.

Masterclass on minimising cardiotoxicity risk using cardiac substructure contours, baseline CV risk & sensible endpoints by @_katelynatkins at #ASTRO2023

🚨Very important analysis on reducing #radiotherapy dose to LAD (V15<10%)🚨
@Dr_RayMak @_katelynatkins Can you share with us what brush size was used for contouring LAD (~7mm?) & which cc volume 10% corresponds to?🙏
