Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PRO podcast - Radiation Therapy for Gastric Cancer: An ASTRO Clinical Practice Guideline
Q: On question KQ1, what is the definitive setting for curable gastric cancer and how do you time radiation with chemotherapy?
Radiation in the perioperative setting is typically used after initial systemic therapy, with a preference to start with multi-agent chemotherapy, followed by chemoradiation when appropriate, and then surgery, while recognizing that in certain lower-risk contexts a more conservative approach may be considered based on tumor location and margins.
“Skin care during radiotherapy – What the guidelines tell us and don’t tell us” - Red Journal Podcast July 1, 2026
Q: How should follow-up be structured post-treatment given peak dermatitis can occur weeks after therapy?
Implement early follow-up at 1-2 weeks post-treatment and consider teleconsultations or patient portals so patients can report symptoms and share photos for remote monitoring.
“Skin care during radiotherapy – What the guidelines tell us and don’t tell us” - Red Journal Podcast July 1, 2026
Q: What is the current standard of care for dermatitis during radiotherapy?
A basic approach includes gentle cleansing and routine moisturization, patient education, and early involvement of multidisciplinary teams; escalation depends on severity, with consideration of topical steroids for higher-risk cases.
Pediatric Proton Therapy, for Some or for All? – Red Journal Podcast June 1, 2026
Q: Could you just introduce us to the topic by telling us how your section came up with the idea to write an oncology scan on this topic in this way?
The idea arose from recognizing the universal questions around proton therapy for children, especially the cost-effectiveness and access issues in low- and middle-income countries, and assembling a diverse group to explore these themes through OncoScan papers and related materials.
Red Journal Podcast March 15, 2026: Combating Misinformation Through Multisociety Advocacy - The Example of Lung Cancer Screening
Q: What is the role of the radiology community and how should clinicians implement these guidelines?
Radiology leads with standardized low-dose protocols, reporting, and lung cancer screening centers of excellence; clinicians should ensure appropriate referral pathways, proper follow-up of nodules, and clear patient communication about risks and benefits.
