3-Dimensional conformal radiotherapy versus intensity modulated radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer: Dosimetric and radiobiologic analysis
Background: To analyze the dosimetric and radio biologic advantages between intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and 3 dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and selection of optimal photon energy for IMRT treatments. Material and methods: 24 patients with localized prostate carcinoma were planned for 3DCRT and IMRT techniques. Radiation dose of 54 Gy with 2 Gy/fraction, was planned to ...

Explicit procedures are provided in the three cases above, the principal one being that the problem has an hidden structure of linear preorder with universally measurable graph. Yann Brenier (Nice). A modified least action principle allowing mass concentrations for the early universe reconstruction problem. Abstract. We discuss the reconstruction problem for the early universe, following Peeble...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen kinetics after hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
Background: stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics after SBRT has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study is to analyze the rate of PSA decline and PSA nadir following hypofractonated SBRT in localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: From 2008...
متن کامل[11C]choline PET/CT impacts treatment decision making in patients with prostate cancer referred for radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND The purpose of our study was to analyze the role of [(11)C]choline-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (cho-PET/CT) in the management of patients with prostate cancer referred for radiotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Inclusion criteria for this retrospective study were (1) presence of prostate cancer, (2) referral for first radiotherapy course (for primary or recurrent t...
متن کاملThe effect of Rectal Retractor, a rectal protector on rectal dose in radical prostate radiotherapy
Introduction: The close proximity of the rectum tissue to the prostate gland results in rectal toxicity during prostate radiotherapy. Rectal Retractor (RR) is a rectal displacement technique that inserts into the rectum, as a result, the lateral and dorsal part of the rectal wall push away from high dose areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric consequence...
