Evaluation of PERSH Criteria to Avoid Unnecessary Chest X-ray in Patients with Blunt Chest Trauma: A Qualitative Study
Background: Chest X-rays (CXRs) are traditionally performed to determine intra-thoracic injuries in all blunt chest trauma patients in Shahid Bahonar hospital in Kerman. As there are some disadvantages upon CXR and radiation exposure, therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the role of CXR in the diagnosis of intra-thoracic injuries caused by any blunt chest trauma. Me...
متن کاملField-In-Field Plan Versus Tangential Wedged Beam Plan in Chest Wall Radiotherapy of Post-Mastectomy Patients: Treatment Planning Study
Introduction: In this study, dose distribution of the chest wall in post-mastectomy breast cancer patients was evaluated and compared in the tangential wedged beam (TWB) and field-in-field (FIF) plans. Materials and Methods: Thirty-six patients with left-sided breast cancer were enrolled in this study. The FIF and TWB plans were generated for each patient to compare dosimetric parameters of th...
متن کاملPrimary Hydatid Disease of the Chest Wall Presenting as a Chest Wall Tumor
Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease that is endemic in Mediterranean areas, South America, North Africa, Australia, and Iran. Although the liver and lung are the most common involved organs, but the other organs in human body also can be involved by hydatid cyst. Chest wall involvement by hydatid cyst is a rare condition, which may be misdiagnosed as chest wall tumor in the endemic areas. Herei...
متن کاملPatient effective dose evaluation for chest X-ray examination in three digital radiography centers
Background: The radiation doses resulting from diagnostic X-ray examinations are routinely measured in terms of entrance surface dose (ESD) and effective dose (ED). In this study, for the purpose of radiation protection, the radiation doses received from Digital chest X-ray examination were evaluated in terms of ESD and ED. Material and Methods: The ED was calculated by using the MCNP ...
متن کاملChest-wall irradiation by kilovoltage x-rays: Observed local control rate versus predicted radiobiological tumor control probability
Introduction: The high local control rates observed in patients with breast cancer who had been treated by modified radical mastectomy, chemotherapy and chest-wall irradiation using 120 kV X-rays (50 Gy in 25 fractions) motivated us to investigate their observed tumor control probability (TCP) and test a well-established radiobiological TCP model against our data. Mat...
