Congenital hydrocephalus (CH) is a life-threatening medical condition in which excessive accumulation of CSF leads to ventricular expansion and increased intracranial pressure. Stenosis (blockage) of the Sylvian aqueduct (Aq; the narrow passageway that connects the third and fourth ventricles) is a common form of CH in humans, although the genetic basis of this condition is unknown. Mouse model...
PURPOSE Perform a retrospective dosimetry study of total body irradiation (TBI) on leukemia and bone marrow transplant patients. METHODS The in vivo dosimetry data of 129 patients treated with TBI between 2008 and 2011 were retrieved from the database and analyzed. These patients were mostly treated with the regime of a single fraction or 6 fractions with some exceptions of 8-fraction or 2-fr...
PURPOSE In pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), radiotherapy (RT)-related late toxicities are a prime concern during treatment planning. This is the first study to examine whether arm positioning (raised versus akimbo) result in differential cardiopulmonary and breast doses in patients undergoing mediastinal RT. METHODS Two treatment plans were made for each patient (akimbo/arms raised); treatmen...
Statement of Problem:The determination of the dental midline is necessary in most dental procedures.One of the methods to fulfill this goal is to determine the facial midline based on the midpoints of the forehead, nose, upper lip and chin. However, for various reasons, this method has not always been proved successful. In such cases, different techniques, based on the investigations in the ede...
Background: In addition to heart disease, ECG also changes in non-heart disease, which due to its similarity, can lead to misdiagnosis of heart disease in patients. ECG changes in brain lesions such as ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, brain traumas, etc. and have been studied in many articles, but the effects of brain midline shift on ECG changes have not been studied. In this study, we want t...
OBJECTIVES Late abdominal irradiation toxicity during childhood included renal damage, hepatic toxicity and secondary diabetes mellitus. We compared the potential of conformal radiotherapy (CRT), helical tomotherapy (HT) and proton beam therapy (PBT) to spare the abdominal organs at risk (pancreas, kidneys and liver- OAR) in children undergoing abdominal irradiation. METHODS We selected child...
The formation of a functioning nervous system requires that axons extend along appropriate pathways to reach correct terminal fields during embryonic development. Axon pathfinding in a broad range of organisms is characterized by the ability of neuronal growth cones to discriminate between appropriate and inappropriate growth substrates (Bovolenta and Mason, 1987; Landmesser et al., 1990; Marcu...
The CNS of bilateral symmetric organisms is characterized by intensive contralateral axonal connections. Genetic screens in Drosophila have identified only a few genes required for guiding commissural growth cones toward and across the midline. Two evolutionarily conserved signaling molecules, Netrin and Slit, are expressed in the CNS midline cells. Netrin acts primarily as an attractive signal...
PURPOSE Hydrogel prostate-rectum spacers, biomaterials placed between the prostate and rectum, continue to gain interest as a method to reduce or limit rectal dose during dose escalated prostate cancer radiation therapy. Because the spacer is initially injected into the perirectal space as a liquid, the final distribution can vary. The purpose of this study was to evaluate hydrogel spacer (Spac...
