High-dose, conventionally fractionated thoracic reirradiation for lung tumors.
BACKGROUND Loco-regional recurrences and second primary lung tumors are not uncommon after high-dose thoracic radiotherapy. The availability of improved radiotherapy techniques increases options for reirradiation. We describe a single-institutional experience with high-dose conventional thoracic reirradiation for both loco-regional recurrences and new primary tumors. METHODS Retrospective cha...
متن کاملEffects of genistein following fractionated lung irradiation in mice.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study investigated protection of lung injury by genistein following fractionated doses of radiation and its effect on tumor response. MATERIAL AND METHODS C3H/HeJ mice were irradiated (100 kVp X-rays) with 9 fractions of 3.1 Gy over 30 days (approximately equivalent to 10 Gy single dose) and were maintained on a genistein diet ( approximately 10mg/kg). Damage was a...
متن کاملDose mapping sensitivity to deformable registration uncertainties in fractionated radiotherapy – applied to prostate proton treatments
BACKGROUND Calculation of accumulated dose in fractionated radiotherapy based on spatial mapping of the dose points generally requires deformable image registration (DIR). The accuracy of the accumulated dose thus depends heavily on the DIR quality. This motivates investigations of how the registration uncertainty influences dose planning objectives and treatment outcome predictions.A framework...
متن کاملTargeted Lung Cancer Treatments and Eye Metastasis
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of death due to cancer. We do not have effective tools for the early detection of lung cancer, so patients are usually diagnosed at an advanced stage. However, novel therapies based on molecular pathways (such as those involving the epidermal growth factor receptor, anaplastic lymphoma kinase, serine/threonine-protein kinase B-Raf, proto-oncogene tyrosine-p...
متن کاملReoptimization of IMPT plans based on linear energy transfer
Figure 6 illustrates the simplified RBE model (equation 3) used in this work. Figure 6a shows 9 the physical dose di for 10 9 protons for a single pencil beam, delivering approximately 4.5 10 Gy at the Bragg peak, which is located at the distal edge of the target volume. Figure 6b 11 shows the additional biological dose c L̄idi in Gy for c = 0.04 μm/keV. The sum of c L̄idi and 12 di yields the RB...
