Pre-radiotherapy FDG PET predicts radiation pneumonitis in lung cancer
BACKGROUND A retrospective analysis is performed to determine if pre-treatment [18 F]-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) image derived parameters can predict radiation pneumonitis (RP) clinical symptoms in lung cancer patients. METHODS AND MATERIALS We retrospectively studied 100 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who underwent FDG P...
متن کاملRadiation recall pneumonitis induced by chemotherapy after thoracic radiotherapy for lung cancer
BACKGROUND Radiation recall pneumonitis (RRP) describes a rare reaction in previously irradiated area of pulmonary tissue after application of triggering agents. RRP remains loosely characterized and poorly understood since it has so far only been depicted in 8 cases in the literature. The objective of the study is to disclose the general characteristics of RRP induced by chemotherapy after tho...
متن کاملDosimetric factors predicting radiation pneumonitis after CyberKnife stereotactic body radiotherapy for peripheral lung cancer
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to investigate the frequency of symptomatic radiation pneumonitis (RP) after CyberKnife lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and to evaluate predictive factors of symptomatic RP. METHODS 56 patients with peripheral non-small-cell lung cancer were treated using the CyberKnife® VSI™ System (Accuracy Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) between May 2013 and September ...
متن کاملRadiation pneumonitis complicating mediastinal radiotherapy postpneumonectomy.
Radiation pneumonitis is a well-characterized clinicopathological syndrome. The severity of radiation-induced lung injury correlates, among other factors, with the extent of lung volume incorporated within the field of radiation. The present article describes the cases of two patients with radiation pneumonitis following pneumonectomy and mediastinal radiotherapy. Postpneumonectomy pulmonary-me...
متن کاملRadiation Pneumonitis after Radiotherapy of Neck Lymphoma
Radiotherapy is still one of the effective means for treatment of malignant tumors up to now. Particularly, it is an indispensable effective measure for treatment of some lymphoma patients. In routine work, radiation pneumonitis (RP) is the most significant complication of acute treatment-related toxicities in lung cancer; however, serious radioactive pneumonia is rare for the radiotherapy of n...
