Jansen B, Bargon C, Bouman M, van der Molen D, Postma E, van der Leij F, et al.
Breast Cancer Res Treat . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39899162
Purpose: Timing of Deep Inferior Epigastric artery Perforator (DIEP)-flap breast reconstruction in the context of post-mastectomy radiotherapy for breast cancer patients is topic of debate. We compared the impact of...

Bargon C, van der Molen D, Young-Afat D, Batenburg M, Van Dam I, Baas I, et al.
J Natl Cancer Inst . 2024 Dec; PMID: 39626303
Background: Oncoplastic breast conserving surgery (OP-BCS) is becoming increasingly popular to avoid mastectomy or optimize cosmetic outcomes of breast conserving surgery (BCS). Few studies have compared clinical outcomes and patient-reported...

Kaidar-Person O, Boersma L, De Brouwer P, Weltens C, Kirkove C, Peignaux-Casasnovas K, et al.
Radiother Oncol . 2024 Sep; 201:110563. PMID: 39341505
Material/methods: Data with a median follow-up of 15.7 years were extracted from the trial's case report forms. Kaplan-Meier curves of disease-free and OS and cumulative incidence curves of breast cancer...

Van Vliet-van den Ende K, Hoogendoorn-Mulder P, Schokker R, Moerland M, Kroon P, Roesink J, et al.
Tech Innov Patient Support Radiat Oncol . 2024 Sep; 31:100262. PMID: 39224832
Introduction: At our department we have a dedicated 1.5 Tesla MRI/HDR brachytherapy suite, which provides the possibility of repeated MRI scanning before, during and after applicator insertion and before and/or...

Civil Y, Vasmel J, Charaghvandi R, Houweling A, Vreuls C, van Diest P, et al.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys . 2024 Aug; 121(3):613-622. PMID: 39098432
Purpose: Preoperative partial breast irradiation (PBI) can increase accuracy of target volume definition and decrease irradiated volumes compared with postoperative PBI. In the ABLATIVE trial (NCT02316561), 15 of 36 patients...

Koop Y, Atsma F, Batenburg M, Meijer H, van der Leij F, Gal R, et al.
Cardiooncology . 2024 Feb; 10(1):7. PMID: 38336705
Background: Thoracic radiotherapy may damage the myocardium and arteries, increasing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Women with a high local breast cancer (BC) recurrence risk may receive an additional radiation boost...

van der Molen D, Batenburg M, Maarse W, van den Bongard D, Doeksen A, de Lange M, et al.
JAMA Oncol . 2024 Feb; 10(4):464-474. PMID: 38329746
Importance: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is proposed as treatment for late local toxic effects after breast irradiation. Strong evidence of effectiveness is lacking. Objective: To assess effectiveness of HBOT for...

Kaidar-Person O, Giasafaki P, Boersma L, De Brouwer P, Weltens C, Kirkove C, et al.
Radiother Oncol . 2023 May; 185:109698. PMID: 37211281
Patients And Methods: All data were extracted from the trial's individual patients' case report forms (CRF) and analysed with a median follow-up of 15.7 years. Cumulative incidence curves were produced...

Qual Life Res . 2023 Apr; 32(8):2375-2390. PMID: 37016089
Purpose: During the first SARS-CoV-2-infection wave, a deterioration in emotional well-being and increased need for mental health care were observed among patients treated or being treated for breast cancer. In...

Groot Koerkamp M, van den Bongard H, Philippens M, van der Leij F, Mandija S, Houweling A
Phys Imaging Radiat Oncol . 2022 Jul; 23:74-79. PMID: 35833200
Background And Purpose: In (ultra-)hypofractionation, the contribution of intrafraction motion to treatment accuracy becomes increasingly important. Our purpose was to evaluate intrafraction motion and resulting geometric uncertainties for breast tumor...
