Placing historical data, dosimetric correlations, and relative cardiac risk in context are key when weighing the benefits of radiotherapy in breast cancer control and survival. Estimating present day cardiac risk in the modern treatment era includes challenges in length of follow-up and the use of ...
Ureteroenteric stricture incidence has been reported as high as 20% after urinary diversion. Many patients have undergone prior radiotherapy for prostate, urothelial, colorectal, or gynecologic malignancy. We sought to evaluate the differences between ureteroenteric stricture occurrence between patients who...
To date however the HPV OPSCC patients selected to validate the 8th Ed Staging Manual have generally received either three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) or early iterations of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Systemically-dosed three weekly cisplatin rather than low-dose weekly...
Although radiation-induced cardiotoxicity has been addressed, its prognostic relevance to modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques is unclear. This study assessed the impact of adjuvant RT on heart-related deaths in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ. Pat
navigation in oncologic surgery is the ability to place virtual “markers” within the 3D data set to identify the resection margins [22]. This information can then be used in combination with final pathology and radiation therapy to determine the optimal strategy for post-operative radiotherapy ...
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among men, with many treatment modalities available for patients, such as radical prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy, brachytherapy, high-intensity focused ultrasound, cryotherapy, electroporation a
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for localization of recurrent prostate cancer after external beam radiotherapy. Int. J. Radiat. Oncol. Biol. Phys. 2008, 70, 425–430. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Foltz, W.D.; Wu, A.; Chung, P.; Catton, C.; Bayley, A.; Milosevic,...
Amongst patients with low-risk disease (n = 61) according to NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) criteria, one man had BCR after radiotherapy, and two patients had interrupted active surveillance. No systemic progression was detailed. Amongst men with intermediate-risk disease according to ...
