Dose-volume Analysis of Heart and Lung during 3D Planning of Tangential Breast Cancer Irradiation
Introduction: Breast cancer is becoming more frequently diagnosed at early stages with improved long-term outcomes. Radiation-related heart disease and lung cancer can occur following radiotherapy for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate some dosimetric parameters of heart and lung during whole breast radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Twenty...

Background: Breast cancer is becoming more frequently diagnosed at early stages with improved long term outcomes. Radiation-related heart disease and lung cancer can occur following radiotherapy for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate some dosimetric parameters of heart and lung during whole breast radiotherapy. Methods:Twenty five consecutive...
متن کاملChest radiotherapy to achieve lung volume reduction.
Another comment refers to transepithelial elimination of neutrophils during resolution of NCAP. The interesting proposed hypothesis of inflammatory resolution through egression of leukocytes is very attractive [3]. C.G.A. Persson and L. Uller argue that elimination of leukocytes from the airways with bronchial inflammation (transepithelial egression) is a mode of resolving inflammation. This ch...
متن کاملThe impact of benign prostatic hyperplasia on bladder volume in radiotherapy of prostate cancer
Background: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease among older men and many patients with prostate cancer (PC) also have BPH. External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is one of the important treatments for PC, nevertheless, few studies have analyzed the effect of BPH on EBRT. We tried to know the risk of bladder toxicity by analyzing the bladder volume variability in patients with...
متن کاملEvaluation of regional nodes irradiation during breast cancer radiotherapy
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate nodal irradiation with conventional three-field's technique. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients with breast cancer were enrolled in this study. Computed tomography scans in the supine treatment position were imported into a treatment planning system. Levels I-III axillary and supraclavicular nodes were identified and their depths to the a...
