Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) was found to be the preferred method for LC screening, and chest X-ray examination was not recommended for LC screening. (2) Tumor markers, bronchoscopy, sputum cytology and LC antibody screening could be used to assist in screening rather than as parts o...
"The only recommended screening test for lung cancer islow-dose computed tomography(also called a low-dose CT scan or LDCT)," the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains. "During an LDCT scan, you lie on a table and an X-ray machine uses a low dose (amount) of radiation to...

For asymptomatic individuals aged 50 to 80 who have smoked 20 pack years or more and either continue to smoke or have quit within the past 15 years, we recommend that annual screening with low-dose CT should be offered. We suggest that low-dose CT screening programs develop strategies to ma...
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS, for short) uses photon or proton beams that deliver a large radiation dose within a small area. It may be used for gliomas that have returned after the first round of therapy. It may also sometimes be used for spinal tumors. Receiving radiation During...

Total abdominal colectomy with end ileostomy is typically recommended for patients with severe medically refractory UC, fulminant colitis, toxic megacolon, or colonic perforation. Consider a staged approach for an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in patients being treated with high-dose corticosteroi...
The use of diuretics, which stimulate the RA system, should be limited to a complementary level, but the presence of renal failure may be an indication for use. When using ARBs and ACE inhibitors, they should be started at a low dose, and the dose should be adjusted by paying attention...
He receives neoadjuvant dose-dense MVAC, something we’re using more and more often in the clinic nowadays, for PD-L1-positive muscle-invasive bladder cancer. He undergoes cystectomy, which reveals significant residual disease and positive pelvic lymph nodes. So if you didn’t have any issues ...
