متن کاملEvaluation of Cyclin D1 Expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and its Effect on Response Rate to Neo- adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
Background and Objective: Esophageal cancer especially squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most common gastro intestinal malignancies in north part of Iran (Khorasan). The standard treatment for esophageal cancer is surgical resection, but its outcome remains poor. Then, the oncologists try to treat this cancer with sandwich protocols especially neo-adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Sever...
متن کاملGenotype-phenotype association of TGF-β1 and GST with chemo-radiotherapy induced toxicity
Background: Normal tissue toxicity continues to remain as a major challenge for radiation oncologists for delivering the total dose to the tumour cells in cancer patients. Cellular, molecular and plasma based early biomarkers to predict the overreactions and non-overreactions of normal tissue toxicity before the initiation of radiotherapy can be valuable for personalised treatment. The aim of t...
متن کاملRadiation Oncology Medical Physics Workload calculation: A Change in Current Workload
Introduction: It is an essential activity to quantify the Radiation Oncology Medical Physics (ROMP) workload for a safe, secure and progressive department. Due to the most recent development at Reza radiotherapy and Oncology Centre (RROC), a workload calculator tool is provided. Materials and Methods: The Project was performed in different sections includin...
متن کاملReinforcement learning based feedback control of tumor growth by limiting maximum chemo-drug dose using fuzzy logic
In this paper, a model-free reinforcement learning-based controller is designed to extract a treatment protocol because the design of a model-based controller is complex due to the highly nonlinear dynamics of cancer. The Q-learning algorithm is used to develop an optimal controller for cancer chemotherapy drug dosing. In the Q-learning algorithm, each entry of the Q-table is updated using data...
