Skin Reaction in Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer
Introduction The first medical intervention for many breast cancer patients is breast conserving surgery (BCS) and/or modified radical mastectomy (MRM). Most of these patients undergo radiation therapy, following surgery. The most common side-effect of breast radiotherapy is skin damage. In the present study, the severity of acute skin changes and the underlying causes were investigated in pati...
متن کاملPre-operative systemic therapy in locally advanced breast cancer: a single institution experience

Studies have shown that adjuvant irradiation after breast-conserving surgery has the same result as a mastectomy, so adjuvant radiotherapy enables sparing surgery in breast cancer patien...
متن کامل3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy and Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Techniques for Laryngeal Cancer Taking Parotid Glands as Organ at Risk
Background: Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques are used for the treatment of patients with laryngeal cancer. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of these 2 treatment techniques on the planning target volume (PTV) (laryngeal cancer), dose homogeneity, dose of organs at...
متن کاملSafety, effectiveness and economic evaluation of intra-operative radiation therapy: a systematic review
