Results and Discussion: The reference for the current 3D CT-based definition of the lymph node regions in the neck is the official report of the American Academy of Otolaryngology, describing, based on surgical anatomy, the lymph node groups in the neck by Levels I–VI. The present investigati...
high levels of TIMP-1 mRNA as well as TIMP-1 protein have been demonstrated in several types of cancer and this has been associated with poor prognoses of the patients[133,140]. In the same way, in osteosarcoma, high levels of plasma TIMP-1, but not tumor tissue TIMP-1, have been fo...
Accurate and well-defined target volume definition is the essential element of IMRT to avoid missing the treatment target and to minimize the dose to surrounding normal tissue. Accurate target delineation is even more critical in the era of image guided radiotherapy (IGRT) using daily conebeam CT...
DTO was built based on the need for a formal semantic model for druggable targets including various related information such as protein, gene, protein domain, protein structure, binding site, small molecule drug, mechanism of action, protein tissue localization, disease association, and many other ...
The invention relates to a method and an ultrasonic imaging apparatus () for imaging a specular object (such as a biopsy needle) and a target anatomy in a tissue, whereby the specular object remains visible even when its location deviates from a target plane () including the target anatomy....
6、logical correction for the variation in dose rate and dose per fraction.inter-observer variation in delineation for cervix cancerpoor organ definition with ctorgan definition sometimes difficult with ct due to lack of contrast.mri offers much better contrast for soft tissue.combination of ct with...
Techniques for prostate localization prior to each treatment fraction are now available; however, such that margins have been decreased substantially to increase dose and limit normal tissue complications. The magnitude of the margin used for EBRT should be a function of immobilization, localization tech...
A uniform planning margin would result in excessive irradiation to normal tissue, reducing the benefits of IMRT [10]. Different planning margins around subregions of the cervix and uterus is one approach to overcoming the variation. In this study, we analyzed the inter-fractional movements of the...
