thoracic radiotherapy also has a secondary effect on normal lung tissues. Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) occurs in 5–20% of patients and limits the maximum dose of radiotherapy [1]. RILI manifests acutely as radiation pneumonitis and chronically as radiation-induced lung fibrosis (RIPF) [...
Retinopathy and irreversible retinal damage have been reported during long-term, high-dose therapy. Maculopathy and macular degeneration have been reported and may be irreversible. Irreversible retinopathy with retinal pigmentation changes (bull's eye appearance) and visual field defects (paracentral ...
This article presents the construction of a multimodality platform that can be used for efficient destruction of brain tumor by a combination of photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy. For in vivo studies, U87 patient-derived xenograft tumors were implante
BACKGROUND:Kidney transplantation is the optimal treatment for end-stage kidney disease. Over the last decades, the long-term survival of renal allografts has significantly increased. Nevertheless, several causes, including the recurrence of native kidne
Whole-Body Proton Irradiation Causes Long-Term Damage to Hematopoietic Stem Cells in Mice Space flight poses certain health risks to astronauts, including exposure to space radiation, with protons accounting for more than 80% of deep-space radiation. Proton radiation is also now being used with inc...
Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the most frequently used methods for cancer treatment. Despite remarkable advancements in RT techniquesthe treatment of radioresistant tumours (i.e. high-grade gliomas) is not yet satisfactory. Finding novel approaches less da

Long-term changes "Our study subjects included both patients who had received traditional radiotherapy and those who had the more targeted form, IMRT. We saw low-grade inflammation in both groups. The damage to the surrounding tissue can be limited by IMRT, but there are still long-term inflam...
