Introduction: Select patients with oropharyngeal SCC are candidates for unilateral radiation therapy. We sought to investigate if ipsilateral targeting leads to increased contralateral recurrences. Methods: We queried the PCG database for patients treated with unilateral proton RT for head and neck SCC from 2015 – 2020 at 12 institutions. DICOMs were evaluated to ensure dose delivered matched a unilateral proton treatment plan. Demographic, clinical and pathological, toxicity and dosimetry information were compiled. Results: We found 43 cases treated with unilateral proton RT. 94% (n¼16) of recurrent cases received prior radiation. Oropharyngeal sites included tonsillar fossa (n¼32), and base of tongue …

Purpose: We proposed an experimental approach to build a precise machine-specific model for standard, volumetric, and layer repainting delivery based on a cyclotron accelerator system. Then, we assessed the interplay effect using a 4D mobile lung target phantom compared to a generic delivery sequence model from West German Proton Therapy Essen (WPE). Methods: The machine delivery log files, from an IBA ProteusPLUSt system, were retrospectively analyzed to quantitatively model energy layer switching time, spot switching time, and spot drill time for standard and volumetric repainting delivery. To quantitatively evaluate the interplay effect, a series of digital thoracic 4DCT image sets …
