14, 15 We analyzed a diverse range of clinical parameters as done by others15, 16 following a standardized procedure for planning including rectal enema for fiducial marker placement and simulation.17 However, there was no daily rectal prep during treatment itself and patients were not given ...
However, there are also some contraindications to its use, such as urethral warming if it is close to this organ; when the size of the prostate is limiting for a complete freezing, neoadjuvant hormone therapy is used to reduce the size of the tumor before the procedure (Nomura and Mimata,...
Patients receiving ADT had to initiate treatment within 30 to 60 days before fiducial marker placement and continue treatment for 4 months. Allowable forms of ADT included injectable gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (eg, leuprolide, leuprorelin, triptorelin) with bicalutamide, as well as injectable...
(CTCAE), version 5.0. An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a medical intervention, which in the context of this trial include radiopaque hydrogel spacer and fiducial marker placement, and radiation therapy. The following AEs should be assessed and ...
providing a better delineation of the ablated areas. After ablation is complete, pre- and post-contrast T1-weighted images are obtained to determine the non-perfused volume and serve as a marker of the treatment quality. In this case, no enhancing tissue is noted in the area planned to be...

42,60,61 Epithelial differentiation from stem/progenitor cells into differentiated basal and luminal cells has been documented in the rat prostate with changing patterns of cytokeratins as well as alterations in AR expression, an early marker of epithelial cell differentiation.60 The process initiates ...
Alternatively, a marker gene can be placed in tandem with a sequence encoding HPSK under the control of a single promoter. Expression of the marker gene in response to induction or selection usually indicates expression of the tandem gene as well. Alternatively, host cells which contain the ...
