Aside from surgery,radiation therapyis one of the most effective treatments for people withbrain canceror other cancers that have spread to the brain. Because more people with brain cancer are now surviving longer, more people are experiencing long-term side effects from the treatment. Those side ...
AA-PET (MET-PET and FET-PET) can be used for gross tumour volume (GTV) delineation in brain gliomas and for the differentiation between treatment-related changes (pseudo-progression, pseudo-regression) and residual/recurrent tumour. There are some data showing that MET-PET and (DOTATOC)-PET ...
However, this situation creates conflict for radiation oncologists who believe that there are enough high level of evidence for the effectiveness of whole-brain radiation therapy in the treatment of brain metastases. 展开 关键词: Brain metastases Whole-brain radiation therapy Stereotactic radiosurgery ...

CONCLUSIONS: For patients with brain stem or thalamic gliomas, increasing the dose of radiation therapy from 72 to 78 Gy did not significantly improve survival. Different treatment strategies are clearly needed. 展开 关键词: HYPERFRACTIONATION RADIATION THERAPY BRAIN NEOPLASM BRAIN STEM GLIOMA THALAMIC ...
