OncoRAG: graph-based retrieval enabling clinical phenotyping from oncology notes using local mid-size language models

Abstract Oncology notes contain the richest clinical detail, yet they remain largely inaccessible at scale because extracting structured phenotypes requires either substantial language model infrastructure, curated training data, or cloud computing under regulatory constraints. W...

Longitudinal Tumor, Vascular, and Immune Cell Response in Two Rat Prostate Carcinomas After Isoeffective Photon, Proton, and Carbon Ion Irradiation: Impact of Linear Energy Transfer, Dose Level, and Hypoxia

Background/Objectives: High linear energy transfer (LET) carbon ions achieved more effective and biologically robust tumor control than photons in preclinical prostate cancer models; however, the longitudinal development of histopathological parameters remains insufficiently char...
