Changes in glucose metabolism during and after radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Evaluation of the metabolic response to radiotherapy in nonsmall cell lung cancer patients is commonly performed about three months after the end of radiotherapy. The aim of the present study was to assess with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose changes in glucose metabolism during and after radiotherapy in non-small cell lu...
متن کاملChanges in volume of stage I non-small-cell lung cancer during stereotactic body radiotherapy
BACKGROUND The overall treatment time of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for non-small-cell lung cancer is usually 3 to over 10 days. If it is longer than 7 days, tumor volume expansion during SBRT may jeopardize the target dose coverage. In this study, volume change of stage I NSCLC during SBRT was investigated. METHODS Fifty patients undergoing 4-fraction SBRT with a total dose of 48 ...
متن کاملConcurrent chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer: a retrospective analysis of the correlation between radiotherapy-related factors and tumor response
Background: To determine which radiotherapy parameters are associated with the tumor response of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Thirty one patients with IIIA/IIIB NSCLC underwent chemoradiotherapy with a median dose of 63 Gy. On our actual treatments, we made radiotherapy planning to cover the planning...
متن کاملRadical radiotherapy in stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)--Singapore National Cancer Centre experience.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to assess the outcome of radical treatment for stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with external beam radiation therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective series of 23 patients with stage I NSCLC treated radically with radiotherapy from September 1997 to December 2004 at the National Cancer Centre, Singapore. Eighteen patients had 3D conformal...
متن کاملVinorelbine-based chemo-radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Concomitant radio-chemotherapy improves survival of patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer, with a better local-regional control. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN We report our experience with vinorelbine-based chemotherapy in neoadjuvant and radical settings in 43 patients. Regimens consisted of cisplatin plus vinorelbine in 74.4% patients and carboplatin plus ...
