Role of Apparent diffusion coefficient value in Diffusion Weighted imaging of MRI to assessment of radiotherapy efficiency in the patient with glioma tumor during treatment
Introduction: Glioma is the most common primary malignancy of cerebral neoplasms in adults, which in spite of therapeutic significant efforts, has a very poor prognosis. The current standard treatment of these patients generally includes surgery and radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy with 6 courses of adjuvant use of temozolomide tabs. During these years, the nervous...
متن کاملExternal Beam Radiotherapy in Prostate Cancer
For the first time in their history, the 2 medical organizations most responsible for the treatment of prostate cancer in the United States—the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) and the American Urological Association (AUA)—have issued a joint guideline, a series of 9 major statements on the use of radiation therapy (either adjuvant or salvage) after prostatectomy. The statements ...
متن کاملHypofractionated External-Beam Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
There are radiobiological rationales supporting hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer. The recent advancements in treatment planning and delivery allow sophisticated radiation treatments to take advantage of the differences in radiobiology of prostate cancer and the surrounding normal tissues. The preliminary results from clinical studies indicate that abbreviated fractionation prog...

متن کاملApparent diffusion coefficient values during magnetic resonance -guided biopsy of the prostate: correlation with histological results
Introduction: Recently, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging (DCE-MRI) are introduced as additional imaging methods to improve the specificity. Langer et al. found significant differences in ADC values between normal peripheral zone tissue and cancerous tissue. In this study whole mount section histopathology was used as standard of reference. However, the c...
