INTRODUCTION Early localisation of disease recurrence after definitive treatment of prostate cancer is vital to determine suitability for salvage treatment. Our aim was to further investigate the relationship between prostate specific antigen (PSA) level and detection of suspected cancer recurrence using 68  Ga-PSMA PET/CT in patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy (RP)...

Bladder cancer begins after the healthy cells in bladder wall, most commonly urothelial change and grow out of control, forming a mass called tumor cells, that also line renal pelvis ureter develops type cancer, it is often upper tract cancer. A can be benign or malignant, cancerous malignant spread to other parts body, means but will not spread, these are very rare. tumors divided into 3 types...

Introduction: Breast conserving surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) of the whole breast is accepted as the treatment of choice in early stage breast cancer. Due to breast irregularities, it is difficult to access homogenous dose distribution with conventional techniques. Currently, it is possible to use varied breast irradiation techniques, such as field- in-field (F...

Introduction: The dose in computed tomography (CT) often approach or exceed the optimum levels, thereby increasing the probability of cancer induction. With wide application of this diagnostic test, it is expedient to determine the effective dose (ED) for each patient to estimate their cancer risk. This study was conducted to investigate the patient-specific dose (PSD) and cancer risk in CT exa...

Cancer, which is the uncontrolled division of cells, a leading fatal disease in world with high mortality rates. It can be treated using several methods, including radiotherapy, involves ionizing radiation. Radiotherapy on basis source placement has two types, i.e. brachytherapy and external beam radiotherapy. External radiotherapy evolved from 2-D conventional therapy to 3-D Conformal (3D-CRT)...

Background: External beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy plays a vital role in the management of cancer cervix.  High dose rate brachytherapy is being presently used worldwide for the brachytherapy applications. At present, 2-Dimensional linear array detectors   are the most common QA tool used for pretreatment patient specific quality assurance in external beam radiotherapy alon...

Background: For the purpose of individual clinical target volume assessment in radiotherapy of prostate cancer, MRSI was used as a molecular imaging modality with MRI and CT images. Materials and Methods: The images of 20 prostate cancer patients were used in this study. The MR and MRSI images were registered with CT ones using non-rigid registration technique. The CT based planning (BP), CT/MR...

Introduction: Phantom is an object that can be used to investigate the accuracy of radiation dose delivered to patients. Phantom is usually produced from the combination of the silicone rubber as a matrix and glycerin as a filler to form a composite for the replacement of the human soft tissue. The composite is imaged using computed tomography (CT) simulator for the de...

Introduction: Despite growing interest in the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the external radiotherapy design process (RT), Computer Tomography (CT) remains a gold standard and is regarded as a basic imaging modality in radiotherapy. MRI shows the high contrast in soft tissues without any radiation exposure to patients. As a result, MRI is used in functional tissue ...
