Assessing the quality and reliability of ChatGPT’s responses to radiotherapy-re...
Grilo, Ana; Marques, Catarina; Corte-Real, Maria; Carolino, Elisabete; Caetano, MarcoBackground: Patients frequently resort to the internet to access cancer information. However, these websites often lack content accuracy and readability. Recently, ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence-powered chatbot, has signified a potential paradigm shift in how patients with cancer can access vast amounts of medical information, including insights into radiotherapy. However, the quality of the information pr...
O impacto da radioterapia no desenvolvimento cognitivo em doentes pediátricos c...
Marco; Caetano, Marco; Correia, Rita; Martins, RuteIntrodução – Os tumores do sistema nervoso central (SNC) são a segunda patologia maligna mais comum e a principal causa de morte por cancro em crianças e adolescentes com menos de vinte anos. Apesar dos avanços terapêuticos terem aumentado a taxa de sobrevivência aos cinco anos para cerca de 80%, os tratamentos ainda causam efeitos secundários agudos e tardios. Entre os efeitos agudos da radioterapia (RT) estão...
Structural findings obtained through optic coherence tomography and magnetic re...
Creado, Joana; Caetano, Marco; Camacho, PedroABSTRACT - Introduction: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is essential in evaluating glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON), particularly in asymptomatic stages, by analyzing retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and retinal nerve fiber layers (RNFL). However, the relationship between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and structural biomarkers from OCT remains unclear. Objective: To study the association between...

Nevertheless, these online websites often need more content accuracy and readability. Recently, ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence-powered chatbot, signifies a potential paradigm shift in how cancer patients can access vast medical information. However, given that ChatGPT was not explicitly trained for oncology-related inquiries, the qual...
Analyzing the reliability and cost of the most commonly used dosimeters for per...
Caetano, Marco; Gregório, João; Paulo, Marília SilvaTo identify the most used dosimeters for monitoring ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and analyze their reliability and cost for individual UV exposure monitoring, this study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. An extensive search of the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, covering 2005–2023, was conducted, including examining reference lists of retrie...
Impact of SGRT on patient positioning: a systematic review
Pan, Maria; Ndembo, Samantha; Caetano, MarcoIntroduction – Surface-guided radiotherapy (SGRT) is a technique that uses technology in the 3D detection of the patient’s surface, which helps the radiation therapists in the daily repositioning and monitoring of intra and interfraction movements of the patient. It is a non-invasive technique and does not use ionising radiation. Objectives – It is intended to study if the SGRT technique could replace the use o...
Adaptive radiotherapy in anatomical changes in head and neck cancer: a systemat...
Caetano, Marco; Feliz, Cátia; Cavaquinho, RuteIntroduction and Objectives – During the treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC) with external radiotherapy (ERT) it is possible to occur several anatomical changes. Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) is an emerging technique that prevents changes in patient anatomy and target volume (TV) during ERT treatments by designing adapted dosimetric plans. However, there are no protocols for its implementation. This study aim...
Radioterapia adaptativa no cancro de cabeça e pescoço: revisão sistemática
Caetano, Marco; Feliz, Cátia; Cavaquinho, RuteIntrodução e Objetivos – Ao longo do tratamento de cancro de cabeça e pescoço (CCP) com radioterapia externa (RTE) é possível ocorrer várias alterações anatómicas. A Adaptive Radiotherapy (ART), consiste numa técnica emergente que contraria as alterações na anatomia do doente e do volume alvo (VA) durante o decurso de tratamentos de RTE através da criação de planos dosimétricos adaptados. Porém, não existem pro...
