Clinicopathological study of brain tumor radiotherapy.
A clinicopathological study was made on 45 autopsy cases of brain tumors treated with radiotherapy. Morphological changes after radiotherapy were classified into six categories : 1) tumor disappearance, 2) small residual tumor, 3) extensive tumor necrosis, 4) proliferative tumor growth, 5) mixed glioblastoma and fibrosarcoma, and 6) no remarkable change. When the tumors are primarily radiosensi...
متن کاملDosimetric Effects of Rotational Setup Error in Volumetric Modulated Arc Radiotherapy on Brain Tumor Patients
Introduction: This study examined the dosimetric effects based on the rotational setup error to correct patient setup errors occur during volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) for brain tumor patients. Material and Methods: This study included 1129 cases of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images obtained from 46 brain tumor patients, who experienced VMAT and used the 6DoF (degree o...
متن کاملIntegrated segmentation of brain tumor images for radiotherapy and neurosurgery
Segmentation of brain tumor images is an important task in diagnosis and treatment planning for cancer patients. To achieve this goal with standard clinical acquisition protocols, conventionally, either classification algorithms are applied on multimodal MR images or atlas-based segmentation is used on a high-resolution mono-modal MR image. These two approaches have been commonly regarded separ...
متن کاملTumor progression in patients receiving adjuvant whole-brain radiotherapy vs localized radiotherapy after surgical resection of brain metastases.
BACKGROUND Surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy is a well-established treatment paradigm for brain metastases. OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of postsurgical whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) or localized radiotherapy (LRT), including stereotactic radiosurgery and intraoperative radiotherapy, on the rate of recurrence both local and distal to the resection site in the treatment of brain m...
متن کاملRole of T lymphocytes in tumor response to radiotherapy
Over thirty years ago, Helen Stone and colleagues compared the effects of local tumor irradiation in immunocompetent and T cell deficient mice, providing the first evidence that tumor response to radiotherapy is impaired in the absence of a normal T cell repertoire. In the following three decades there has been an exponential growth in understanding T cells and the complex molecular mechanisms ...
