چکیده

background: much research has widely been conducted into thyroid hormones levels following radiotherapy for breast cancer. consequently, in this study, we evaluated to relate the rate of thyroid hormones levels with the dose distribution among breast cancer patients. material and methods: thirty patients were treated with 4-field breast cancer radiotherapy. the dose volume histograms, the volume percentage of the thyroid absorbing respectively 20, 30, 40 and 50 gy were then estimated (v20, v30, v40 and v50) together with the individual average thyroid dose over the whole gland derived from their computed tomography-based treatment plans. then, in serum samples triiodothyronine [t3], thyroxine [t4], thyroid-stimulating hormone [tsh] of the patients were measured before and after radiotherapy. results: there were no significant differences in thyroid hormones levels before and after radiotherapy for patients with breast cancer (p value >.05). conclusion: on the balance, we understood that thyroid stimulating hormones levels did not change before and after cancer breast radiotherapy.

Measurement of Thyroid Dose by TLD arising from Radiotherapy of Breast Cancer Patients from Supraclavicular Field

Background: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading global cause of cancer death among women worldwide. Radiotherapy plays a significant role in treatment of breast cancer and reduces locoregional recurrence and eventually improves survival. The treatment fields applied for breast cancer treatment include: tangential, axillary, supraclavicular and internal mammary ...

Changes in salivary gland function following radioiodine therapy of thyroid diseases: A comparison of high-dose therapy for thyroid cancer and low-dose therapy for benign thyroid disease

Introduction: High-dose radioactive iodine therapy in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) may adversely affect the salivary gland function. This study is aimed to evaluate the effect of radioactive iodine (RAI) with dose of 100 mCi in DTC patients compared to lower doses of less than 30 mCi in hyperthyroid cases. Methods: Fifty four patients (13 men and 41 women) age: 42.3±14.3 (21-71) years w...

Evaluation of Thyroid Gland Irradiation in Women with Breast Cancer during Radiotherapy with different Radiation Energies at Supraclavicular Region

Introduction: During treatment of breast cancer, Radiotherapy to the Supraclavicular fossa region results in absorption of radiation by the thyroid gland and consequently leads to hypothyroidism in 40% of patients. The aim of this study was to compare thyroid gland radiation absorption during radiotherapy with different anterior-posterior beam radiation of 6-15 and 15-15 MV pho...
