However, preclinical studies failed to show a reduction in radiation-induced lymphopenia after UHDR irradiation compared with conventional dose rates (CONV). This study aims to investigate the influence of fractionation and beam sequencing on absorbed dose to circulating lymphocytes during CONV and UHDR irradiations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>MATERIALS AND METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The LymphoDose framework was applied to a cohort of 162 patients treated for brain tumors with 3D conformal radiotherapy. Four scenarios of UHDR treatment were compared: (S1) one fraction with all beams delivered simultaneously, (S2) one fraction with sequentially delivered beams, (S3) three fractions with all beams delivered simultaneously, and (S4) three fractions with sequentially delivered beams.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      UHDR fractionation and the beam delivery scheme had a significant impact on irradiated blood volume (1.3% \u00b1 0.1% for S1\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">v<\/jats:italic>\n                      13% \u00b1 3.2% for S4) and lymphocyte pool (12.5% \u00b1 0.1% for S1\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">v<\/jats:italic>\n                      32.8% \u00b1 0.2% for S4). UHDR scenarios primarily irradiate lymphocytes through exposure of head-and-neck lymph node rather than circulating blood. CONV and UHDR result in distinct temporal dose patterns for lymphocytes, characterized by either numerous low-dose fractions or a few high-dose pulses.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The doses delivered to lymphoid organs account for a substantial portion of the total dose received by the lymphocyte pool, showing only a limited difference between UHDR and CONV in terms of lymphocyte exposure. The fractionation strategy of UHDR irradiation beams could play an important role in successfully translating UHDR treatments into clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1200\/cci-26-00091","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,17]],"date-time":"2026-07-17T20:00:11Z","timestamp":1784318411000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1200\/crossmark","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Influence of Fractionation and Beam Sequencing on Absorbed Dose to Circulating Lymphocytes During Ultra-High Dose Rate and Conventional Radiotherapy: An In Silico Study"],"prefix":"10.1200","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3293-6471","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Fran\u00e7ois","family":"de Kermenguy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"},{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2865-5845","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Camilla","family":"Satragno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-3642-5814","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mohammed","family":"El-Aichi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8272-8817","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ibrahima","family":"Diallo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6583-0334","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Cristina","family":"Veres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fereshteh","family":"Talebi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement de radioth\u00e9rapie, Gustave Roussy, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8582-3244","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Cathyanne","family":"Schott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Deutsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"},{"name":"D\u00e9partement de radioth\u00e9rapie, Gustave Roussy, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8838-1343","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Charlotte","family":"Robert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inserm U1030 Radioth\u00e9rapie Mol\u00e9culaire et Innovation Th\u00e9rapeutique, Gustave Roussy, Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Villejuif, France"},{"name":"D\u00e9partement de radioth\u00e9rapie, Gustave Roussy, Villejuif, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"233","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/1078-0432.CCR-17-3375"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41571-022-00697-z"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41568-025-00878-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.radonc.2020.04.054"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clon.2021.09.003"},{"key":"e_1_3_7_7_2","volume-title":"Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, Gif-sur-Yvette, France","author":"de Kermenguy F","year":"2024","unstructured":"de Kermenguy F: Assessment of the doses received by the peripheral blood and circulatinglymphocytes during radiotherapy treatments [dissertation].
