Intra-operative radiation therapy is usually a component of a multi-disciplinary treatment approach for localized cancers that can not be completely removed or that have a high risk of recurring in nearby tissues. For patients with colorectal cancer, IORT has been associated with improved local ...
These strategies result in cumulative tradeoffs of cost, effectiveness in diagnosing cancer recurrence, radiation exposure and patient burden. The burden of ...John W
Dr. Imre Gyuk is now the DOE's last EMF staffer in Washington. Lynne Gillette has left her post as EMF RAPID research manager to become the program man- ager for biomass power in the DOE's Office of Solar Thermal, Biomass Power and Hydrogen Technologies. Dr. Paul Gailey of the Oak ...
Its major advantage, according to the MICROWAVE NEWS January/February 1994 company, is that it allows "shorter treatment time"—30 minutes a day instead of the 3-24 hours per day with the other stimulators that are now available. For instance, Electrobiol- ogy Inc. of Parsippany, NJ, ...
Treatment with cell-phone frequencies has disrupted thyroid-gland functioning in lab rats, for example. And at Lund University in Sweden, rats were exposed to cell-phone EM fields of varying strengths for two hours; 50 days later, exposed rats showed significant brain damage relative to non-...
Pancreatic cancer accounts for only 3% of cancer cases but is the 3rd leading cause of cancer mortality in the United States [1]. Notable improvements have been made over the past decade, particularly in regard to systemic therapy and radiation delivery technique. Generally, the treatment approach...
The treatment mode administered at each session will depend on a pre-determined randomization scheme. The tPBM-2.0 consists of a therapeutic laser console (that produces laser energy as NIR) and an optical delivery system consisting of a flexible, double-sheathed optical fiber connected to a ...

This choice to evaluate both OS from first LM or first SBRT session was due to the fact that 1st-course SBRT was not usually the first treatment at 1st LM relapse, and different other treatments (surgery, chemotherapy) were administrated at different relapses that occurred in the patient’s ...
In this work, we present recommendations for the in vitro and in vivo testing and application of the two treatment techniques. These recommendations were developed by the members of Working Group 3 of COST Action TD 1402: Multifunctional Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia and Indirect Radiation ...
