Therapeutic Potential of Adjuvant Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Gallbladder Cancer
Surgical treatment remains the only curative treatment for gallbladder cancer. However, even after liver resection, locoregional failure seems to be a significant problem. While there is no Level I evidence, multiple studies have shown benefit for adjuvant radiation in high-risk patients. After extensive liver resection, tolerance to conventional chemoradiation may be limited by potential liver...
متن کاملStereotactic ablative body radiotherapy for lung cancer.
Lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is a method of delivering high 'ablative' doses of radiotherapy to tumours in the lung. It was developed at the Karolinska Institute in the early 1990s using the methods established in cranial radiosurgery with multiple beams prescribed to an isodose and using a custom designed stereotactic body frame for immobilisation. Since then, aligned with th...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen kinetics after hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
Background: stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics after SBRT has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study is to analyze the rate of PSA decline and PSA nadir following hypofractonated SBRT in localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: From 2008...
متن کاملMelatonin: A therapeutic potential for the neurohormone in gallbladder disorders
In humans, N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine (melatonin), a neurohormone widely found in plants and animal sources, is synthesized from serotonin primarily by the pineal gland. However, it it is also produced in a number of other areas, e.g. the gastrointestinal tract. Melatonin regulates various biological and physiologic body functions and its role in the regulation of circadian rhythms, particula...
