Whole brain radiotherapy for brain metastasis
Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) is a mainstay of treatment in patients with both identifiable brain metastases and prophylaxis for microscopic disease. The use of WBRT has decreased somewhat in recent years due to both advances in radiation technology, allowing for a more localized delivery of radiation, and growing concerns regarding the late toxicity profile associated with WBRT. This has pro...
متن کاملConcurrent whole brain radiotherapy and bortezomib for brain metastasis
BACKGROUND Survival of patients with brain metastasis particularly from historically more radio-resistant malignancies remains dismal. A phase I study of concurrent bortezomib and whole brain radiotherapy was conducted to determine the tolerance and safety of this approach in patients with previously untreated brain metastasis. METHODS A phase I dose escalation study evaluated the safety of b...
متن کامل3D-Planning of construction site equipment based on process simulation
Current approaches in planning building site equipment evaluate static periods, e.g. construction phases. As a consequence these states provide a rudimentary optimized layout plan, however without considering the material flow and corresponding interactions in a precise form. Due to dynamic processes, which could obstruct the material flow, an adaption of the equipment layout during individual ...
متن کاملBrain metastases: fractionated whole-brain radiotherapy.
Brain metastases are the most common malignant adult intracranial tumors, occurring in approximately 10-30% of cancer patients, and generally lead to a poor prognosis. The incidence has been steadily rising, likely due to longer survival from newer systemic therapies and increased utilization of magnetic resonance imaging. Historically, whole-brain radiotherapy has been a standard of care for t...
متن کاملAutomated population‐based planning for whole brain radiation therapy
Treatment planning for whole-brain radiation treatment is technically a simple process, but in practice it takes valuable clinical time of repetitive and tedious tasks. This report presents a method that automatically segments the relevant target and normal tissues, and creates a treatment plan in only a few minutes after patient simulation. Segmentation of target and critical structures is per...
