PURPOSE Standard brachytherapy sources emit radiation in a non-preferential direction away from the source. Though treatment outcomes are good, this can lead to late skin and subcutaneous toxicities in sensitive structures. Proposed low dose rate directional sources for interstitial brachytherapy, showed to have an improvement in the dose uniformity within the subcutaneous volume, reduction in ...
background: palladium-103 (103pd) is a brachytherapy source for cancer treatment. the monte carlo codes are usually applied for dose distribution and effect of shieldings. monte carlo calculation of dose distribution in water phantom due to a med3633 103pd source is presented in this work. materials and methods: the dose distribution around the 103pd model med3633 located in the center of 30×30...
OBJECTIVE In addition to improve glucose intolerance, recent studies suggest that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonism also decreases triglyceride (TG) levels. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of GLP-1 receptor agonism on very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG production and liver TG metabolism. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The GLP-1 peptide analogues CNTO3649 and exendin...

BACKGROUND Traditionally, low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy has been used as a standard modality in the treatment of patients with carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the effects of high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy on patients with adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix and to compare them with the effects of LDR brachytherapy. METHODS From January 1971 t...
We have been studying brachytherapy planning with the objective of minimizing the maximum deviation of the delivered dose from prescribed dose bounds for treatment volumes. A general framework for optimal treatment planning is presented and the minmax optimization is formulated as a linear program. Dose rate calculations are based on the dosimetry formulation of the American Association of Phys...
The Fully Integrated Real-time Seed Treatment (FIRST) system by Nucletron has been available in Europe since November 2001 and is being used more and more in Canada and the United States. Like the conventional transrectal ultrasound implant procedure, the FIRST system utilizes an ultrasound probe, needles, and brachytherapy seeds. However, this system is unique in that it (1) utilizes a low-dos...
Introduction: The commercial 252Cf sources are too large in size and clinical applications of neutron brachytherapy (NBT) are limited to a small number of intracavitary treatments of cervical cancers. Recently, under the Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with Isotron Inc., the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) encapsulated a new medical 252Cf sources, c...
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to obtain the dosimetric parameters of the new BEBIG (60)Co brachytherapy source following by TG-43U1 recommendation with appropriate electron cutoff energy (0.521 MeV). MATERIAL AND METHODS The new BEBIG (60)Co brachytherapy source is used to calculate the TG-43U1 parameters. EGSnrc-based Monte Carlo simulation code has been used to calculate the radial d...
