Radiosensitization effect of ZnO nanoparticles in lung cancer cells at clinically relevant megavoltage energy
Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the major modalities that have long been used in cancer treatment. Radiotherapy is often accompanied by early and late toxicity and side effects and narrow therapeutic window. Similarity in radiation absorption properties of tumors and neighboring healthy tissues is often the reason for low specificity of radiation therapy. Development ...
متن کاملThe Ep#{228}demiology of Lung Cancer
Lung cancer rates and mortality have risen m epidemic proportions in the United States and other industrialized nations during the 20th century. Case-control and cohort studies performed in the 1950s and 1960s firmly established cigarette smoking as the single greatest risk factor for lung cancer. In the United States, overall lung cancer mortality rates in men and women rose progressively from...
متن کاملBreathing adapted radiotherapy: a 4D gating software for lung cancer
PURPOSE Physiological respiratory motion of tumors growing in the lung can be corrected with respiratory gating when treated with radiotherapy (RT). The optimal respiratory phase for beam-on may be assessed with a respiratory phase optimizer (RPO), a 4D image processing software developed with this purpose. METHODS AND MATERIALS Fourteen patients with lung cancer were included in the study. E...
متن کاملRole of Adenosine receptor in lung cancer
Summary: Adenosine through adenosine receptor have a crucial role in biology of lung cancer. Recent study indicated adenosine receptors have a crucial role in various aspect of lung cancer from cell growth and metastasis to modulation of apoptosis and it could be considered as a potential candidate for treatment of the lung cancer.
متن کاملAn Integrated Simulation System Based on Digital Human Phantom for 4D Radiation Therapy of Lung Cancer
Purpose: To develop and test an integrated simulation system based on the digital Extended Cardio Torso (XCAT) phantom for 4-dimensional (4D) radiation therapy of lung cancer. Methods: A computer program was developed to facilitate the characterization and implementation of the XCAT phantom for 4D radiation therapy applications. To verify that patient-specific motion trajectories are reproducib...
