Intensity-modulated radiotherapy causes fewer side effects than three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy when used in combination with brachytherapy for the treatment of prostate cancer. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 2012;83(2):630–5.Forsythe K, Blacksburg S, Stone N Stock RG (2012): "Intensity...
内容提示: Scan for mobile link.Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) uses linear accelerators to safely and painlessly deliver preciseradiation doses to a tumor while minimizing the dose to surrounding normal tissue. Your radiation oncologist will speak with...
The Use of a Conventional Low Neck Field (LNF) and Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): No Clinical Detriment of IMRT to an Anterior LNF during th... To determine differences in clinical outcomes using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) or a standard low neck field (LNF) to trea...
Definition IMRT is a form of radiotherapy which achieves high precision by focusing radiation dose to the location of the tumor using computer-controlled delivery of x-ray radiation. Damage to surrounding brain tissue is thus minimized and side effects tend to be fewer and less severe. Due to ...
Long-term locoregional control following intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head-and-neck (SCCHN) remains challenging. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and toxicity of IMRT with and without chemotherapy or surgery in locally advanced SCCHN...
Therefore, both the 1-year actuarial overall survival from the start of radiotherapy and the 2-year actuarial overall survival since diagnosis were 28%. IMRT did not result in clinically significant acute side effects. By using the described inverse planning software, overor underdosage in the ...

Radiation Therapy: Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy, Cyberknife, Gamma Knife, and Proton Beam 来自 Springer 喜欢 0 阅读量: 26 作者:R Lei,S Ryu 摘要: Radiosurgery is a medical procedure of accurate targeting of a well-defined volume with radiation. It requires a decision-making based on the ...
The aims of the study are: (1) to design and evaluate a simplified intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) (SI) solution using pre-defined segments, (2) to compare the SI technique with a conformal (CN) and a full fluence IMRT (FI) approach using two sets of beam orientations, clinical...
Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) improves dose homogeneity and late toxicity compared to simple tangential techniques in adjuvant whole-breast radiotherapy for patients with breast cancer. Simultaneous-integrated boost (SIB) radiotherapy shortens the overall treatment time and improves dose homogeneity....
