SARS-CoV-2 and side effects of vaccination show tropism to nervous system structures. Neurological from the central peripheral systems have been observed quite rarely after against COVID-19 compared a large number vaccinated individuals. The article presents clinical case simultaneous damage in form acute autoimmune inflammatory encephalomyelopolyradiculoneuropathy, which occurred receiving fir...

PURPOSE For asymmetric organ shrinkage caused by heterogeneity dose distribution, tissue elasticity based deformable organ registration cannot be directly applied to the treatment image to construct the treatment dose. A novel approach is proposed to include radiation dose inducible organ shrinkage/deformation in the consideration of treatment dose assessment. METHODS A model and algorithm we...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential benefits of using triple-arc volumetric-intensity modulated arc radiotherapy (RapidArc (RA)) for the treatment of early-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). A comprehensive evaluation was performed including plan quality, integral doses, and peripheral doses. Twenty cases of stage I or II NPC were selected for this study. Nine-field sl...

The current study aimed to: a) utilize Monte Carlo simulation methods for the assessment of radiation doses imparted to all organs at risk to develop secondary radiation induced cancer, for patients undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer; and b) evaluate the effect of breast size on dose to organs outside the irradiation field. A simulated linear accelerator model was generated. The in-field...

Introduction: Thyroid cancer is at the ninth from ten of common malignant cancer. A man has higher risk to get Thyroid cancer that a woman has. This organ is lain near human neck. The use of radioactive I-131, I-123 and Tc-99m for diagnosis of thyroid cancer has a risk where other organs around Thyroid will accept dose of radiation. One of the risks is large dose which is accep...

The historical picture of the endocrine system as a set of discrete hormone-producing organs has been substituted by organs regarded as organized communities in which the cells emit, receive and coordinate molecular signals from established endocrine organs, other distant sources, their neighbors, and themselves. In this wide sense, the human skin and its tissues are targets as well as producer...
