A source of error in the automated serum triiodothyronine-uptake test.
N AUTOMATED TECHNIQUE for the determination of serum T31 uptake, based on the AutoAnalyzer, was proposed by Pollard et al. (1); a report of the clinical application of this method followed (2) and minor technical improvements were reported by Webber et al. (3). The latter showed an excellent correlation between the T3 uptake as measured by the automated technique and serum PBI. Continued experi...

متن کاملPotential role of radiation therapy in augmenting the activity of immunotherapy for gynecologic cancers
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become an area of intense interest in oncology and are actively being studied in a variety of cancer types with a wide range of success. In vitro data suggest mechanisms by which radiation can activate the immune system, and ongoing studies are exploring the potential interaction of checkpoint inhibitors with radiotherapy in both preclinical and clinical settin...
متن کاملThe role of intraoperative radiation therapy in the management of recurrent and locally advanced gynecologic cancers.
For patients with locally advanced primary or recurrent gynecologic cancers, prognosis is poor. Doses of external beam radiation therapy required to treat either gross or microscopic disease in patients previously irradiated or treated surgically exceed doses that are tolerated by normal anatomic structures. Intraoperative radiation therapy allows maximal tumor control achievable with radiation...
متن کاملIntensity-modulated whole pelvic radiation therapy in patients with gynecologic malignancies.
PURPOSE To evaluate the ability of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) to reduce the volume of small bowel irradiated in women with gynecologic malignancies receiving whole pelvic radiotherapy (WPRT). METHODS AND MATERIALS Ten women with cervical (5) or endometrial (5) cancer undergoing WPRT were selected for this analysis. A planning CT scan of each patient was obtained following ad...
