Carbon Ion Therapy for Early-Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Carbon ion therapy is a type of radiotherapies that can deliver high-dose radiation to a tumor while minimizing the dose delivered to the organs at risk; this profile differs from that of photon radiotherapy. Moreover, carbon ions are classified as high-linear energy transfer radiation and are expected to be effective for even photon-resistant tumors. Recently, high-precision radiotherapy modal...
متن کاملCalculation of total dose and dose equivalent distribution in the treatment of lung cancer using MR-guided carbon therapy
Nowadays, in order to improve the accuracy of treatment in radiation therapy, there are many attempts to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to the advantages of excellent soft tissue contrast and ultra-fast pulse sequences. On the other hand, carbon-ion radiation therapy is developing rapidly due to the benefits of greater relative biological effectiveness (RBE) and the application in the...
متن کاملCarbon-ion radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer with interstitial lung disease: a retrospective analysis
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is frequently complicated by interstitial lung disease (ILD). Treatment protocols for lung cancer patients with ILD have not been established; surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy can all cause acute exacerbation of ILD. This study evaluated the toxicity and efficacy of carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and ILD. METHOD...
متن کاملCarbon ion therapy for ameloblastic carcinoma
Ameloblastic carcinomas are rare odontogenic tumors. Treatment usually consists of surgical resection and sometimes adjuvant radiation. We report the case of a 71 year-old male patient undergoing carbon ion therapy for extensive local relapse of ameloblastic carcinoma. Treatment outcome was favourable with a complete remission at 6 weeks post completion of radiotherapy while RT-treatment itself...
متن کاملCarbon ion therapy to debut in Europe.
fter 14 years of construction, the Large Hadron Collider, the world’s largest particle accelerator, fired its first beam of protons in September from its home at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) near Geneva. Now a spinoff technology for treating cancer is also nearing its European debut. The first European center to offer carbon ion therapy — a type of radiation treatment t...
