and repetitive radiation exposure from annual screening44. In addition, imaging studies detect radiographic abnormalities, not cancer, and result in biopsy-identified cancer diagnoses in only a small minority of positive scan findings, while the majority of false positive findings may drive invasive diag...
Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy Facility Type Affects Anastomotic Complications After Esophagectomy 2023, Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery Citation Excerpt : Practice patterns vary between radiation oncologists regarding simulation techniques, radiation dose, target volumes, and daily image guidance, which may account...
Radiotherapy is one of the most effective approaches to achieve tumor control in cancer patients, although healthy tissue injury due to off-target radiation exposure can occur. In this study, we used a model of acute radiation injury to the lung, in the context of cancer metastasis, to underst...
There is also a place for radiation therapy, whether that is through an induction platform with chemoradiation or adjuvant radiation therapy for patients with resected disease. [Radiation therapy] may be a bit on the downswing now because of some recent trials, but there is a role for it as ...
Thus, this method is better suited for use in a two-hit animal model after the first triggering factor of ALI is applied. Furthermore, lung contusion (invasive) or radiation (non-invasive) induced ALI models can be developed to better understand the acute inflammatory and injurious responses, ...
What is the risk of cumulative radiation exposure from repetitive low-dose CT scans? What is the responsibility of health care personnel to evaluate nonpulmonary issues detected by CT (e.g., coronary calcifications). In this review, we address these and other questions that arise. Further, ...

A randomised trial of screening for lung cancer using CT showed a survival benefit with screening, but issues surrounding risks arising from screening remain. The appropriate treatment of early-stage lung cancer detected in this way is receiving increasing attention. This Review discusses treatment-rela...
2a). UVB radiation reduced the infiltration of eosinophils (Fig. 2b), IL-5 and IL-13 production (Fig. 2c) and the numbers of eosinophils and ILC2s in the lung (Fig. 2d) after ILC2s transfer. Thus, these results indicate that UVB exposure may be beneficial in alleviating ILC2-mediated...
