Proton Grid Therapy: A Proof-of-Concept Study
In this work, we studied the possibility of merging proton therapy with grid therapy. We hypothesized that patients with larger targets containing solid tumor growth could benefit from being treated with this method, proton grid therapy. We performed treatment planning for 2 patients with abdominal cancer with the suggested proton grid therapy technique. The proton beam arrays were cross-fired ...

The segmented vertebral column comprises a repeat series of vertebrae, each consisting of two key components: the vertebral body (or centrum) and the vertebral arches. Despite being a defining feature of the vertebrates, much remains to be understood about vertebral development and evolution. Particular controversy surrounds whether vertebral component structures are homologous across vertebrat...
متن کاملEvaluation of dosimetric characteristics of a grid block fabricated for Mega-voltage grid therapy purposes
Background: In conventional radiation therapy, regarding normal tissue tolerance, the treatment of bulk tumors is one of the remaining challenges. Grid Radiation Therapy (GRT) is a technique to deliver high doses, approximately 15 – 20 Gy per fraction, to several small volumes located in a large radiation field. This can be performed using a grid block. The current work has concentrate...
متن کاملPressure garment therapy (PGT) of burn scars: evidence-based efficacy.
Hypertrophic burn scars pose a challenge for burn survivors and providers. In many cases, they can severely limit a burn survivor's level of function, including work and recreational activities. A widespread modality of prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scarring is the utilization of pressure garment therapy (PGT). Despite the magnitude of the problem of hypertrophic scarring and the ubi...

Various exogenous compounds, for example, the drugs bupropione and propofol, but also various cytostatics, are metabolized in the liver by the enzyme cytochrome P450 (P450) CYP2B6. Transcription from the CYP2B6 gene is regulated mainly via the transcription factors constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and pregnane-Xreceptor (PXR). Most hepatic cell lines express no or only low levels of CYP2B...
