After 1960, cardiac surgery became a separate subspecialty with an emphasis on coronary bypass surg...
متن کاملAdapted Prescription Dose for Monte Carlo Algorithm in Lung SBRT: Clinical Outcome on 205 Patients
PURPOSE SBRT is the standard of care for inoperable patients with early-stage lung cancer without lymph node involvement. Excellent local control rates have been reported in a large number of series. However, prescription doses and calculation algorithms vary to a great extent between studies, even if most teams prescribe to the D95 of the PTV. Type A algorithms are known to produce dosimetric ...

متن کاملSBRT for early-stage glottic larynx cancer—Initial clinical outcomes from a phase I clinical trial
PURPOSE To confirm safety and feasibility of hypofractionated SBRT for early-stage glottic laryngeal cancer. METHODS Twenty consecutive patients with cTis-T2N0M0 carcinoma of glottic larynx were enrolled. Patients entered dose-fractionation cohorts of incrementally shorter bio-equivalent schedules starting with 50 Gy in 15 fractions (fx), followed by 45 Gy/10 fx and, finally, 42.5 Gy/5 fx. Ma...
متن کاملClinical Outcome, Role of BRAFV600E, and Molecular Pathways in Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinoma: Is It an Indolent Cancer or an Early Stage of Papillary Thyroid Cancer?
Most human thyroid cancers are differentiated papillary carcinomas (PTC). Papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMC) are tumors that measure 1 cm or less. This class of small tumors has proven to be a very common clinical entity in endocrine diseases. PTMC may be present in 30-40% of human autopsies and is often identified incidentally in a thyroid removed for benign clinical nodules. Although PT...
