- 1From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedBackground The salivary mucin MUC5B, present in (sero)mucous secretions including submandibular gland (SMG) saliva, plays an important role in the lubrication of the oral mucosa and is thought to be related to the...
- 2From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedBackground To retrospectively access the outcome and toxicity of a total skin electron beam therapy (TSEBT) in patients with cutaneous lymphoma (CL) or leukemia. Patients and methods Treatment results of 25...
- 3From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedThe ability of irradiated tissue to support bony growth remains poorly defined, although there are anecdotal cases reported showing mixed results for the use of mandibular distraction osteogenesis after radiation for...
- 4From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedObjective To examine the efficacy of different radiation doses after achievement of a complete response to chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods Patients with stage I-IV DLBCL treated from...
- 5From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedBackground There are limited data on accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using external beam techniques. Moreover, there are recent reports of increased fibrosis and unacceptable cosmesis with APBI using...
- 6From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7) Peer-ReviewedBackground To investigate patterns of failure and survival rates of elective irradiation of upper neck in N0 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Methods From February 1996 to November 2002, 97 patients without...
- 7From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Radiation therapy (RT) is effective treatment for curing and palliating cancer, yet concern exists that not all Canadians for whom RT is indicated receive it. Many factors may contribute to suboptimal...
- 8From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedStereotactic brachytherapy (SBT) has been described in several publications as an effective, minimal invasive and safe highly focal treatment option in selected patients with well circumscribed brain tumors <4 cm....
- 9From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground The purpose of this study was to compare the change in depth of target volume and dosimetric parameters between the supine and lateral decubitus positions for breast boost treatment with electron beam...
- 10From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedPurpose HybridArc is a novel treatment technique blending aperture-enhanced optimized arcs with discrete IMRT-elements, allowing selection of arcs with a set of static IMRT-beams. This study compared this new...
- 11From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction Earlier, we showed that in cancer cells, AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) participates in a signal transduction pathway involving ATM-AMPK-p53/p21.sup.cip1 which is activated by ionizing radiation (IR) to...
- 12From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground The respiratory related target motion and setup error will lead to a large margin in the gastric radiotherapy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the dosimetric benefit and the possibility of...
- 13From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedRadiotherapy for prophylaxis of heterotopic ossification (HO) is commonly used in high risk patients following orthopedic surgery. While treatment is effective and can prevent morbidity associated with HO, with any dose...
- 14From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground To investigate whether patients treated for a localized prostate cancer (PCa) require a radical prostatectomy followed by postoperative radiotherapy or exclusive radiotherapy, in the modern era of image...
- 15From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedPurpose Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for early-stage lung cancer can be achieved with several methods: respiratory gating, body frame, or real-time target and motion tracking. Two target tracking...
- 16From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Î-Ionizing radiation (IR) therapy is one of major therapeutic tools in cancer treatment. Nevertheless, [gamma]-IR therapy failed due to occurrence of metastasis, which constitutes a significant...
- 17From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground To investigate whether different conditions of DNA structure and radiation treatment could modify heterogeneity of response. Additionally to study variance as a potential parameter of heterogeneity for...
- 18From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Radiation proctitis after intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) differs from that seen after pelvic irradiation in that this adverse event is a result of high-dose radiation to a very small area in...
- 19From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground For many decades, the standard of care radiotherapy regimen for medulloblastoma has been photon (megavoltage x-rays) craniospinal irradiation (CSI). The late effects associated with CSI are well-documented...
- 20From: Radiation Oncology. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedPurpose Autophagy has attracted attentions as a novel mechanism for tumor development. In this study Human ovarian carcinoma cell line SKOV3 and multidrug-resistant phenotype SKVCR cells were used and the roles of...
