Effect of lung volume on the oesophageal diaphragm EMG assessed by magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation.
Previous studies have shown conflicting results on the effect of lung volume on the diaphragm compound muscle action potential (CMAP). Consequently, the ability to quantify the oesophageal diaphragm electromyography (EMG) has been questioned. If lung volume changes have little effect on the diaphragm CMAP the accurate measurement of voluntary EMG, as an index of respiratory drive, may be possib...
متن کاملDosimetric Evaluation of Target Volume in Breast Boost Radiotherapy: Comparison of Electron and Photon Beam
Background and purpose: Breast‑conserving surgery followed by radiation therapy to the whole breast is now recognized as a standard strategy in patients with breast cancer. Recommended technique for radiotherapy is whole breast irradiation followed by boost to the tumor bed. This study aimed to compare the dosimetric parameters of electron and photon beams for boosting irradiation in post‑lump...
متن کاملThe Role of MRSI in Target Volume Definition for Radiation Therapy of Prostate Cancer
Introduction: Recently, magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI), as a functional imaging method, has been used for clinical target volume definition. In this study, we used this method to define the target volume in prostate radiotherapy. Material and Method: In this study, we used images of 20 prostate cancer cases. MRSI and MRI images were fused with CT images. Then, treatment plannin...
متن کاملVolume displaced by diaphragm motion in emphysema.
To examine the effect of hyperinflation on the volume displaced by diaphragm motion (DeltaVdi), we compared nine subjects with emphysema and severe hyperinflation [residual volume (RV)/total lung capacity (TLC) 0.65 +/- 0.08; mean +/- SD] with 10 healthy controls. Posteroanterior and lateral chest X rays at RV, functional residual capacity, one-half inspiratory capacity, and TLC were used to me...
