Medical Physics Clinical Application of Linear-quadratic Model in Reirradiation of Symptomatic Bone Metastases
Radiotherapy is an important and one of the most effective curative and palliative modality of cancer treatment. Symptomatic bone metastases (M1OSS) represent an important problem in oncology. External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is effective in palliating pain from bone metastases, being rapid treatment without major toxicities. There are many fractionation schemas and a certain percent of patien...
متن کاملRadiation- induced cognitive impairments
Introduction: Ionizing radiation is non-surgical treatment of brain tumors and metastases. Preclinical studies have showed main insights into harmful effects of radiation on the nervous system in vivo and in vitro. Cognitive impairment such as progressive memory, executive and attention performance deficits indicates a significant risk for patients experiencing conventional rad...
متن کاملAssessment of radiation dose distribution of different radioisotopes used to treatment of bone metastasis and pain relief patients in a bone model of foot
Introduction: Although there are several ways to relief pain in metastatic patients, the use of radionuclides is one of the known and effective ways to relieve the pain caused by bone metastases. The purpose of this study was to assessment of radiation dose distribution of different radioisotopes used to treatment and pain relief patients in a bone-based model based on Monte C...
متن کاملSU-E-T-460: Isoeffective Dose Display (EQD2) for Composite Plan of Radiosurgery and Conventional 3D Radiotherapy.
PURPOSE Direct addition of doses between plans with different fractionation fails to provide accurate dose-response information to anticipate clinical outcome. To combine different fractionation patterns, first-order biological model correction for dose-rate must be included. Moreover, 3-D isoeffect patterns of the combined doses must be displayed so that overlap area to elegant volumes can be ...
متن کاملInfluence of simultaneous-integrated boost, intensity- modulated radiation therapy on electroencephalogram records: Case report
60-year-old woman was treated for a brain metastasis. The patient received intensity-modulated radiation therapy (SIB-IMRT) dose of 30 Gy for the whole brain and 40 Gy delivered simultaneously to individual brain metastases in 10 fractions. The present report investigated the influence of applied novel prepared treatment plan, among others the fractionation protocol on the electroencephalogram ...
