BREAST CANCER INDUCED BY RADIATIONBREAST CANCER INDUCED BY RADIATIONSince Roentgen's discovery of the X-ray in 1895, scientists and society in general have been continuously impressed and surprised by its properties. Impressiveness reflects mainly the many applications that have been devised for X-ray...
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women—more than a million cases are diagnosed each year worldwide. When it's confined to the breast, most women get surgery to remove the lump, followed by several weeks of radiation to kill any lingering cancer cells and sometimes hormone or chem...
The objective of radiation therapy to the breast is to kill cancer cells that could otherwise persist after therapy and cause breast cancer to relapse locally in the breast, surrounding chest wall, or axilla. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells that remain in the...

"Our work shows that radiation can change the microenvironment of breast cells, and this in turn can allow the growth of abnormal cells with a long-lived phenotype that has a much greater potential to be cancerous," says Paul Yaswen, a cell biologist andbreast cancerresearch specialist with ...
Breast cancer is a largely PREVENTABLE disease, and we reach that good news because of our finding that a large share of recent and current breast cancer in the United States is CERTAINLY due to past medical irradiation of the breasts with x-rays at all ages, including infancy and childhood...

Breast cancer survivors have an increased risk of hypothyroidism.Radiation therapy to the supraclavicular lymph nodes further increases this risk.The thyroid gland may be an organ at risk in breast cancer patients.Using volume-based delineation may spare the thyroid gland from radiation damage.关键词:...
circulating tumor cells can be used in clinic in helping to guide management for our patients with early-stage breast cancer, we need to confirm our findings with a prospective clinical trial," Goodman said. The team is currently in the process of developing such a trial at NU and other ...
