John Cuaron

#ASTRO25 10 years and 3 months ago I was blessed to graduate from MSKCC alongside some of the most talented individuals I have ever met. @ndesai2005 Zach Zumsteg @NaamitGerber @JohnCuaron Taught me more than they know. Residency was truly awesome, hard work and all. Been a good 10 years. Excited for the next!

@DrSpratticus @NicholasZaorsky @CWRUSOM @UHhospitals @RadOncUH @ASTRO_org Congratulations Nick!

Incredibly proud of ⁦@NicholasZaorsky⁩ who was just promoted to be a Full Professor with Tenure at ⁦@CWRUSOM⁩ and ⁦@UHhospitals⁩. Congrats on all you have accomplished. You elevate ⁦@RadOncUH⁩ and our field. ⁦@ASTRO_org⁩

Check out our multi-center retrospective analysis of ablative 5-fraction SMART (@MiamiCancerInst) and 15/25-fraction HART (@MSKCancerCenter) for unresectable #pancreaticcancer @RadDocMReyngold @KateMRGuidance @DrPaulRomesser @Reeladeel @EileenMOReilly mdpi.com/2072-6694/17/1…

Enjoyed building this Lego #LINAC with my kids and bringing it to school for Career Day. Hopefully we inspired the next generation of #radonc !!!

Hey #radonc! Trainees seeking an up-to-date treatment guide, attendings interested in learning about MSKCC treatment approaches, and leaders looking to standardize practice across your departments: add this text to your collection! 📖☢️ @LiorBraunstein link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Very pleased that @CMSGov followed the evidence and decided to continue to allow telehealth for status checks (77427). This is clearly the right decision: it preserves access for patients and gives doctors the discretion to provide care in the way they and their patients think best. @JohnCuaron @danielrgomez44 @simonpowell213 @imrtlee @ASTRO_org #radonc #MedTwitter @ShannonMacDonMD #telehealth @JordanJ65544091 @fumikochino

Telehealth palliative care via video visits is noninferior to in-person care for improving quality of life in patients with advanced lung cancer, finds trial across 22 US Cancer centers, w/ both modalities demonstrating clinically significant improvements. ja.ma/3MNpX3v

@LichterKatie @LancetOncology Great paper @LichterKatie! Clear examples of how we can both improve cancer care and simultaneously reduce the environmental impact of that care.

📢 Very excited to share our new study on the environmental impact of radiotherapy published in @LancetOncology! 🌍 Quantifying cancer care emissions via life cycle assessments & proposing sustainable solutions in oncology - including hypofractionation, telehealth, and clean energy/transit.

@SprakerMDPhD @JAMANetworkOpen @seanmmcbride @fumikochino @DhwaniParikhMD @marisakollmeier @MSK_RadOnc @MSKCancerCenter Thanks Matt. The average fraction number was 14.9, median of 12 fractions. There was quite the range, with some patients getting single fraction SRS up to a max of 65 fractions (two sequential courses of definitive treatment for 2 separate cancers).

@JohnCuaron @JAMANetworkOpen @seanmmcbride @fumikochino @DhwaniParikhMD @marisakollmeier @MSK_RadOnc @MSKCancerCenter Curious, what was the average fraction number? Sorry if I missed it. Trying to determine average distance per treatment day, didn't see that reported.

🚨Very excited to share our work on remote management of #radonc patients now in @JAMANetworkOpen. Over 2800 patients managed remotely had high satisfaction with no major safety events, lower out of pocket costs and a reduced carbon footprint. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Radiation oncology care provided by fully remote clinicians was safe and feasible, with no serious patient events, finds cohort study. ja.ma/4b1DP3S

Most insurance denials in radiation oncology were ultimately approved upon appeal; however, radiation technique and/or effectiveness may be compromised by payer-mandated changes, this cohort study of insurer-denied cases finds. ja.ma/3yRljOj @MSK_RadOnc

👀👀 Check out our latest work on #telemedicine use in #radonc and how it can help increase reach to rural areas and those with higher levels of healthcare deprivation! Thanks @JCOCCI_ASCO for helping get this out! ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/CC…

@xrtGenomics @JCO_ASCO @MSKCancerCenter @imrtlee Congrats! A great effort to build off of early hypoxia data. Kudos to you, @imrtlee and the whole head and neck team!

1/N Finally out!! -- 30Gy for HPV+OPC in @JCO_ASCO – work by the @MSKCancerCenter Head and Neck team, led by @imrtlee, Eric Sherman, and myself on using hypoxia imaging response to cut treatment 60% (70->30Gy)! #radonc #hncsm ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

New in @IJROBP from Dr @drothens @LiorBraunstein & the @MSKCancerCenter #radonc team: Is #APBI an option for favorable risk #Her2+ #breastCancer? This study finds excellent short-term local control for HER2+ #bcsm treated with partial breast #radiation ☢️sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
