A quantitative investigation on lung tumor site on its motion tracking in radiotherapy with external surrogates
Introduction: In external beam radiotherapy each effort is done to deliver 3D dose distribution onto the tumor volume uniformly, while minimizing the dose to healthy organs at the same time. Radiation treatment of tumors located at thorax region such as lung and liver has a challenging issue during target localization since these tumors move mainly due to respiration. There are...
متن کاملMetastasis of Lung Adenocarcinoma to the Gingiva: A Rare Case Report
Metastatic tumors account for 1% of all oral malignancies. Metastasis to jaw bones is common, particularly in the mandible, rare in the oral soft tissues, and account for only 0.1% of oral malignancies. The majority of metastatic cases (70%) reported in the literature have primary tumors located in the lung, breast, kidney, and colon. Metastasis is a biological complex process that involves det...
متن کاملThe feasibility and efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy for centrally-located lung tumors.
AIM To investigate the toxicity and outcome of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for centrally-located lung tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted in 45 consecutive patients with centrally-located lung tumors who underwent SBRT. The incidence rate of adverse events (AEs) and outcome after SBRT for primary (32 patients), metastatic and recurrent (13 patients) lun...
متن کاملThe evaluation of lung doses for radiation pneumonia risk in stereotactic body radiotherapy: A comparison of intensity modulated radiotherapy, intensity modulated arc therapy, cyberknife and helical tomotherapy
Background: Radiation Pneumonia (RP) is one of the most extensive side effects in Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) of lung cancer. SBRT are performed by means of Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Intensity Modulated Arc Therapy (IMAT), CyberKnife (CK) or Helical Tomotherapy (HT) treatment methods. In this study, we performed a plan study to determine the plan parameter such as the M...
متن کاملInvestigation of lung normal tissue doses in lung tumors radiation therapy using both gated and conventional radiotherapy
Introduction: In radiation therapy of lung tumors, respiratory motion causes target moving, so a larger margin is needed to cover the clinical target volume (CTV). With the margin increasing, a larger volume of normal tissue will be exposed to high-dose. In this study, dosimetric parameters of normal lung tissue were compared between gated and conventional radiotherapy (RT), u...
