Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fiducial marker placement for image-guided radiation therapy without fluoroscopy: safety and technical feasibility
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fiducial marker placement for image-guided radiation treatment (IGRT) is becoming more widespread. Most case series report the procedure performed using fluoroscopy for spatial geometry although the benefits of this are unclear. The aim of our study is to report the technical feasibility, safety, and migration rate of fiducial marker ...
متن کاملSafety and Efficacy of Ultrasound-Guided Fiducial Marker Implantation for CyberKnife Radiation Therapy
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and technical success rate of an ultrasound-guided fiducial marker implantation in preparation for CyberKnife radiation therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 270 percutaneous ultrasound-guided fiducial marker implantations in 77 patients, which were performed from June 2008 through March 2011. Of 270 implantations, 104 were implanted in me...
متن کاملTechnical advances in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fiducial placement for the treatment of pancreatic cancer
Radiation therapy has an important role in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer and can be used alone or in conjunction with surgery and/or systemic chemotherapy. Because of the challenge of delivering an accurate and optimal radiation dose, image-guided radiation therapy can be used to improve targeting. Fiducial markers can be placed in the tumor and used for loca...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided gold fiducial marker placement for intraoperative identification of insulinoma.
Insulinomas are the most common functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm, comprising 30%–45% of these tumors. Although laparoscopic resection is safe, minimally invasive, and is associated with shorter length of hospital stay, tumor localization at surgery can be challenging. We describe endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fiducial placement as a new technique for intraoperative localizati...
متن کاملLipiodol as a fiducial marker for image-guided radiation therapy for bladder cancer.
PURPOSE To evaluate Lipiodol as a liquid, radio-opaque fiducial marker for image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) for bladder cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 2011 and 2012, 5 clinical T2a-T3b N0 M0 stage II-III bladder cancer patients were treated with maximal transurethral resection of a bladder tumor (TURBT) and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) to 64.8 Gy in 36 fractions ± concurr...
