Comparison of imaging-based gross tumor volume and pathological volume determined by whole-mount serial sections in primary cervical cancer
OBJECTIVE To investigate the accuracy of imaging-based gross tumor volume (GTV) compared with pathological volume in cervical cancer. METHODS Ten patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage I-II cervical cancer were eligible for investigation and underwent surgery in this study. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation of the Gross Tumor Volume in Prostate Carcinoma Using Fuzzy Clustering in Gallium-68 PSMA PET/CT Scan
Introduction: Modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques allow a highly precise deposition of the radiation dose in tumor. So, high conformal tumor doses can be reached while sparing critical organs at risk. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in three phases. In the first phase; Fourteen patients with primary or recurrent prostate cancer receive Gallium-...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Metabolic Tumor Volume Measured by 18F-FDG PET/CT in Esophageal Cancer Patients
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to explore prognostic importance of definition of preoperative metabolic tumor volume in esophageal cancer patients. METHODS 22 patients who have histologically proven stage IIA-III esophageal cancer and underwent (18)F-FDG PET/CT for preoperative staging of disease were included to the study. After (18)F-FDG PET/CT, all the patients underwent surgery within ...
متن کاملA Comparison of Radiologic Tumor Volume and Pathologic Tumor Volume in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)
OBJECTIVE To investigate the difference between preoperative radiologic tumor volume (RTV) and postoperative pathologic tumor volume (PTV) in patients who received nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 482 patients who underwent preoperative computed tomography (CT) within 4 weeks before radical or partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma. RTV measu...
متن کاملApproach to dose definition to the gross tumor volume for lung cancer with respiratory tumor motion
The purpose of this study was to validate the dose prescription defined to the gross tumor volume (GTV) 3D and 4D dose distributions of stereotactic radiotherapy for lung cancer. Treatment plans for 94 patients were generated based on computed tomography (CT) under free breathing. A uniform margin of 8 mm was added to the internal target volume (ITV) to generate the planning target volume (PTV)...
