MR imaging features of locally advanced prostate cancer may influence choice of treatment. The presence of extra prostatic spread has been shown to increase risk of positive surgical margins and impacts survival and the need for additional treatment. High-spatial resolution T2W imaging provides an ...
Clinical observations in renal, breast, and prostate cancer are all consistent with the hypothesis that treatment directed against the primary tumor might retard progression of existing metastases. This hypothesis is amenable to testing by randomized trials of local therapy to the primary site in ...
Moose the therapy dog has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer. His handler, Dr. Trent Davis of Virginia Tech’s Cook Counseling Center, said the Labrador retriever has already started chemotherapy and will begin radiation treatment soon. "It’s been a bit of a shock.”Moose’s former...
To evaluate the detection rate of local and whole-body recurrence by integrated [18F]F-PSMA-1007 PET/MR assessment of prostate cancer patients treated with prostatectomy with very low biochemical recurrence (<0.5 ng/ml). Therapeutic implications Revista Española de Medicina Nuclear e Imagen Molecul...
Despite the many pre-clinical successes of hydrogels for the delivery of immunotherapies for treatment of cancer, hydrogels still face challenges in getting to the clinic and eventually approved. Herein we examine the application of hydrogels in high concentration subcutaneous, intratumoral, peritumoral,...
Cancer of the breast, prostate, colorectum, lung, and cervix uteri are among the most commonly diagnosed malignant tumours worldwide1. All of these cancers are solid tumours and surgery or (chemo-) radiotherapy are currently the only available options for curative loco-regional treatment2,3,4,...
In the nucleus, biological processes are driven by proteins that diffuse through and bind to a meshwork of nucleic acid polymers. To better understand this interplay, we present an imaging platform to simultaneously visualize single protein dynamics toge
Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana and non-profit initiatives have introduced them to chemical-free cultivation, but lack of designated markets and costly organic certification pose a hindranceJhansi, Uttar Pradesh: In the semi-arid Bundelkhand region spread across Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, climat...

Higher radiation doses influenced local control and metastatic spread. We observed no influence of the initial field size in the risk of local control and in the probability of survival. Radical radiation therapy is an effective treatment for small (T1 or < 3 cm) tumors when treated to doses...
