The Role of radiobiological parameters on Tumor control probability (TCP) in prostate cancer
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluation radiobiological modeling parameters on tumor control probability (TCP) for prostate cancer in three different models. These parameters included α⁄β ratios and cell surviving fraction at 2 Gy (SF2). Materials and Methods: The Poisson, equivalent uniform dose (EUD) and linear quadratic (LQ) models was used as...
متن کاملA prospective radiobiological study of acute esophagitis and swallowing dysfunction in head-and-neck radiotherapy
Introduction: Esophagitis is one of the main causes of swallowing dysfunction after radiation therapy (RT) for head and neck cancer (HNC).It significantly affects patients’ quality of life as well as having a potentially negative impact on their long term survival. However, little has been investigated on the dose-response and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of es...
متن کاملHow public fear from radiation in nuclear medicine can be reduced? [Persian]
Today, nuclear medicine has rapidly been developed so that in some cases, plays a unique role in diagnosis but unfortunalty in spite of diagnostic and therapeutic advantages, the term “NUCLEAR” can induce worries in patients and society. In this article, base on new documents, we intend to show that this worries has no scientific basis. To produce a realistic view, ...
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...
