Brain Tumour Imaging
There is now a plethora of different imaging techniques used for diagnosing and treating brain tumours. Different contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging – coupled with amino acid tracers used in positron emission tomography – are the new weapons in radiologists’ armoury which allow them to target and measure tumours more accurately. Brain tumours are among the top causes of tumour-relate...
متن کاملmobile phone use and brain tumour: an age-period-cohort analysis of brain tumour rates in the nordic population
background : the association of the mobile phone use and risk of brain tumor remains controversial among radiationepidemiologists. methods : we hypothesized if an association between brain tumor and mobile phone use exists, this association will be manifested as a cohort effect (as a proxy of association between mobile phone use and brain tumor) in the incidence rates of brain tumor during the ...
متن کاملTumour radiobiology beyond fractionation
Historically it has been shown repeatedly that single high doses of radiation do not allow a therapeutic differential between tumor and critical normal tissues but dose fractionation does. The purpose of conventional dose fractionation is to increase dose to the tumor while preserving normal tissue function. Tumors are generally irradiated with 2Gy dose per fraction delivered daily to a more or...
متن کاملBrain tumour and pregnancy.
Some 35 years ago, in Brouwer's clinic, OQjenick, deVet, and one of the authors (J.J.M.) observed a female patient with intermittent disturbances of the visual field due to compression of the optic chiasm by a meningioma. Her history indicated that the visual difficulties occurred toward the end of each of her frequent pregnancies-she had seven-and disappeared again after each delivery. They be...
متن کاملSecretion of cathepsin B and tumour invasion.
Lysosomal proteases in health and disease 1,ysosomal proteases have been implicated in a variety of pathophysiological processes, such as the malignant progression of tumours [ 11, muscular dystrophy [2], acute inflammation [3] and complications accompanying the ageing process [4]. In nonpathological situations, these proteolytic enzymes are generally found inside cells, i.e. within the endosom...
