Ten patients (14%) experienced new remote tumor development at a median time of 4 months (range: 0–14) after SRS. Whole-brain radiation therapy (2 patients, 20%) and repeat SRS (8 patients, 80%) were used for newly developed tumors. The incidence of transient adverse radiation effects ...
Through the CED technique, AAV2 particles were delivered into the central portion of a growing neoplastic mass, locally transducing only the core of the tumor and leaving its periphery unaffected. Even if the central mass was most likely eradicated by GCV treatment, peripheral cells were s...
Certain brain tumor cells, however, can only use glucose as fuel. Standard treatment for glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive types of brain tumor, is surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. But quite honestly, results from these approaches are fairly dismal. Taking advantage of the ...
The treatment results were investigated using regular magnetic resonance examinations and tumor volume measurement at six-month intervals to observe sequential changes of the tumors. Patients with meningiomas were further divided into three groups according to the peripheral radiation doses: high-dose (20...
