radiotherapeutic techniques, improved systemic therapy options offering better systemic and intracranial disease control and prolongation of survival as a result of these improvements, making side-effects of proposed therapies (e.g. neurocognitive decline from whole brain radiotherapy) an important ...
What do you hope to do during your fellowship? Glioblastomas are incredibly radiation resistant, and my research will be to work out why this is and to develop ways in which we can sensitise these tumours to radiation without causing increased side effects from radiation. Eventually, my main ...
Fractionated radiotherapy is an effective treatment for , able to achieve excellent disease control and normalisation of hormone levels. While the overall safety profile of this treatment modality is favourable, it is not devoid of side effects and it should only be employed when the risks from the...
Examinations of the carbohydrate metabolism with the hlep of the double charge of glucose after Staub-Traugott and by means of measuring of the blood sugar in a state of fast have been carried out on 3 groups of patients, who had been subjected to an intensive x-ray radiation. The radiatio...
Radiotherapy used to treat brain tumours may lead to a decline in mental function many years down the line, say Dutch researchers. 荷兰研究人员称,用于治疗脑瘤的放射线疗法可能导致若干年后心理功能的衰弱。 Radiotherapy is a common treatment for brain
Radiotherapy has several key attributes that make it an attractive combination partner for immunotherapy; however, numerous clinical trials investigating the combination of these two treatment modalities have failed to demonstrate clear improvements in patient outcomes. In this Review, Galluzzi and colleagues...
All cancers that occur in the neck area between the base of the brain and the collarbone are called head and neck cancers.When treating head and neck cancer with radiation therapy, it is very dangerous to stop it due to side effects, including radiation
(TME). Therefore, the combination of RT and immunotherapy is expected to achieve improved efficacy. In this review, we summarize the effects of RT on cellular components of the TME, including T cell receptor repertoires, different T cell subsets, metabolism, tumor-associated macrophages and other...
Stand-alone, closed systems, each with a different purpose, user experience and learning curve add pressure to an already strained resource—you. To keep doing it all—and doing it right—you need to have the right tools and information, for the right patient, at the right time. ...
To study the efficacy of whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with radiosensitizer in comparison with WBRT alone for patients with brain metastases in terms of overall survival, disease progression, response to treatment and adverse effects of treatment. A me
