Conference|Interdisciplinary Prostate Cancer Congress and Other Genitourinary Malignancies Scott T. Tagawa, MD, MS, FACP, FASCO, highlights a key difference between oral androgen receptor inhibitor drugs and therapeutic radionuclides for the treatment of prostate cancer. This...
Solar radiationObjectives: Preventable risk factors for prostate cancer are poorly understood; sun exposure is a possible protective factor. The goal of this study was to investigate prostate cancer risk in outdoor workers, a population with high sun exposure. Methods: Prostate cancer cases and ...
Prostate Cancer Information: Brachytherapy Treatment Brachytherapy is a radiation therapy that can be used as a prostate cancer treatment. Sometimes referred to as interstitial radiation therapy, seed therapy, or seed treatment, prostate brachytherapy is capable of delivering high and concentrated doses ...
Associations between timing of exposure to ultraviolet radiation, T-stage and survival in prostate cancerdoi:10.1016/j.cdp.2007.10.017Prostate cancerT-stageSurvivalUltraviolet radiationSkin typeBackground: Exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) has been inversely associated with prostate cancer risk.

Exposure to ultraviolet radiation may reduce prostate cancer risk, suggesting that polymorphism in genes that mediate host pigmentation will be associated with susceptibility to this cancer. We studied 210 prostate cancer cases and 155 controls to determine whether vitamin D receptor (VDR, Taql and ...
The results of dose escalation, the ability of IMRT to reduce rectal and bladder exposure to high radiation doses and the use of new imaging methods to more accurately target the prostate are described. 展开 关键词: Prostate cancer Dose escalation Intensity modulated radiotherapy ...
Table 1 Characteristics, current applications and limitations of quantitative prostate magnetic resonance imaging techniques. ADC – apparent diffusion coefficient; AUC – area under the curve; csPCa – clinically significant prostate cancer; iPCa – insignificant prostate cancer; min – minutes; mpMRI –...
However, compared to CT scans, radiation exposure is significantly reduced. In addition, costs are lower than MRI5. Ultrasound also could reduce patient waiting time as it does not require the use of complex equipment and is therefore easy to implement. These advantages support the use of CEUS...
Biochemical failure after primary external beam radiotherapy for prostate cancer is common, and a significant proportion of these failures are due to local residual or recurrent disease. Early or delayed palliation using androgen deprivation therapy is the most common approach. Although a conservative ...
