Immunomodulatory Effects of Radiotherapy
It is well known that radiotherapy, as mainly locoregional treatment, has systemic eff ects as well. The term abscopal eff ect (latin: ab – away from; scopus – target) has been used to describe the regression of distant tumor metastases after completion of primary tumor radiation therapy.

متن کاملThe treatment of carcinoma of the lung by radiotherapy.
Where the diagnosis of cancer of the lung is made by bronchoscopy the preferred treatment is surgery for squamous lesions and radiotherapy for anaplastic and oat-cell lesions. In inoperable tumours 8% of patients survive for more than 3 years after a radical course of radiotherapy; some clinical trials aimed at improving this survival rate are described. This lecture deals with the established ...

Between 1966 and 1980, 72 patients with operable carcinoma of the lung were treated primarily with radiotherapy because coexisting, nontumor related medical problem, or patient refusal prevented thoracotomy. We compared results obtained in this group with results obtained by thoracotomy in 123 consecutive patients over the age of 70, who were assessed in a similar fashion, but who underwent tho...

15 صفحه اولEvaluation of Lung Density and Its Dosimetric Impact on Lung Cancer Radiotherapy: A Simulation Study
Background: The dosimetric parameters required in lung cancer radiation therapy are taken from a homogeneous water phantom; however, during treatment, the expected results are being affected because of its inhomogeneity. Therefore, it becomes necessary to quantify these deviations.Objective: The present study has been undertaken to find out inter- and intra- lung density variations and its dosi...
