The effect of Rectal Retractor, a rectal protector on rectal dose in radical prostate radiotherapy
Introduction: The close proximity of the rectum tissue to the prostate gland results in rectal toxicity during prostate radiotherapy. Rectal Retractor (RR) is a rectal displacement technique that inserts into the rectum, as a result, the lateral and dorsal part of the rectal wall push away from high dose areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric consequence...
متن کاملPreliminary analysis of risk factors for late rectal toxicity after helical tomotherapy for prostate cancer
The purpose of this study is to examine risk factors for late rectal toxicity for localized prostate cancer patients treated with helical tomotherapy (HT). The patient cohort of this retrospective study was composed of 241 patients treated with HT and followed up regularly. Toxicity levels were scored according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group grading scale. The clinical and dosimetric p...
متن کاملProstate IMRT: Two-dimensional model of rectal NTCP employing the variability of rectal motion and rectum wall thickness
Background: In order to improve the evaluation of possible rectal toxicity based on the rectal normal tissue complication probability (NTCP), we consider the fractional dependence of the NTCP on the wall thickness (tW) and rectal displacement (RM). Materials and Methods: The two-dimensional NTCP model (NTCP2D) was developed using radiotherapy plans of ten randomly selected patients with prostat...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولFractionation and late rectal toxicity.
E ate rectal bleeding is well established as a key doseimiting end point in prostate radiotherapy (1–6) and is an mportant consideration in cervical cancer radiotherapy (7– ). Consequently, much effort has been devoted to estabishing dose–response relations for rectal bleeding (1–8). linically, however, little has been directly established bout the response of this end point to changes in fract...
