Retrospective analysis of role of interstitial brachytherapy using template (MUPIT) in locally advanced gynecological malignancies.
AIM The aim of this retrospective study was to assess treatment outcomes for patients with locally advanced gynecological malignancies being treated with interstitial brachytherapy using Martinez universal perineal interstitial template (MUPIT) and to study the acute and late sequelae and survival after treatment by this technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety seven patients untreated with hi...
متن کاملHigh-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy for gynecologic malignancies.
PURPOSE The study aimed to assess the outcome of locally advanced cervical and vaginal cancer treated with high-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy (HDRB). METHODS AND MATERIALS Between 1998 and 2004, 16 previously unirradiated patients with locally advanced cervical and vaginal cancer not suitable for intracavitary brachytherapy because of distorted anatomy or extensive vaginal disease were...
متن کاملAn In-Vivo Study during Combined Intracavitary and Interstitial Brachytherapy of Gynaecological Malignancies Using microMOSFET
Aim: To analyze the inter-fraction, intra-fraction uncertainties and to verify the delivered total dose with planned dose in the combined intracavitary-interstitial brachytherapy of gynaecological cancer patients using microMOSFET in-vivo dosimeter. Materials and Methods: Between May 2014 and March 2016, 22 patients who underwent brachytherapy treatments with an applicator combination of CT/MR ...
متن کاملCan combined intracavitary/interstitial approach be an alternative to interstitial brachytherapy with the Martinez Universal Perineal Interstitial Template (MUPIT) in computed tomography-guided adaptive brachytherapy for bulky and/or irregularly shaped gynecological tumors?
BACKGROUND Interstitial brachytherapy (ISBT) is an optional treatment for locally advanced gynecological tumours for which conventional intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) would result in suboptimal dose coverage. However, ISBT with Martinez Universal Perineal Interstitial Template (MUPIT), in which ~10-20 needles are usually applied, is more time-consuming and labor-intensive than ICBT alone, m...
متن کاملMolecular Profiling of Gynaecologic Malignancies: A Review
The current pathological methods and existing serum tumor markers for gynaecologic malignancies does not provide efficient information regarding the therapeutic intervention to which a cancer responds. Cancers classified based on the molecular profile determines the abnormalities at the genetic level. This in turn has led to the discovery of cancer-specific biomarkers. The cancer-specific bioma...
