background: inclusion of inhomogeneity corrections in intensity modulated small fields always makes conformal irradiation of lung tumor very complicated in accurate dose delivery. objective: in the present study, the performance of five algorithms via monte carlo, pencil beam, convolution, fast superposition and superposition were evaluated in lung cancer intensity modulated radiotherapy planni...

The NCCN Guidelines for Lung Cancer Screening have evolved over time to reflect the latest evidence and expert consensus. These played a significant role in shaping clinical practice policy, leading increased payer coverage lung cancer screening decreasing mortality. Continued research advancements early detection methods, along with implementation of effective programs, will be crucial ongoing...

background: lung cancer ranks among the most common and most lethal malignancies worldwide. once vascular or lymphatic invasions occur, metastatic dissemination to distant sites is common. bone, liver, adrenals, and brain are the most frequent sites of the distant disease. in this study we present a case of squamous cell carcinoma of lung with metastasis of the left knee bursa.case presentation...

background deep vein thrombosis (dvt) is a well-recognized complication in patients with cancer. chemotherapy and cancer surgery increase the risk of dvt in these patients. there are a few reports about the prevalence of dvt in patients with cancer regarding different managing modalities. objectives this study aimed to assess the prevalence of dvt in patients with cancer, who were hospitalized ...

This is a case report on stereotaxic (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy-SBRT) for lung cancer located in the left lower lobe (Segment 6, S6). There have been no reports on marked displacement of the peripheral lung cancer during radiotherapy. A pulmonary nodule was discovered on computed tomography (CT) conducted for a persistent cough in an 87-year-old male. According to diagnostic imaging, this ...

Background and Aims: Natural compounds derived from animal, plant, and microbial sources participate in treating various types of cancers, including lung cancer. This survey attempted to explore the anticancer activity of two novel metabolites extracted from soil-derived actinomycetes in the human lung cancer A549 cells. Materials and Methods: The crude extracts of UTMC 638 and UTMC 877 second...

introduction : pulmonary adenosquamous carcinoma is an uncommon histological variety of bronchogenic carcinoma, and has histologic areas differentiated as both squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma and has clinical behavior more like that of adenocarcinoma. tumor stage is higher at the time of diagnosis, and survival is poorer. case presentation : we present a 65 years old woman with bulgi...

background: population based research contributes to our understanding of cancer at many levels. for health program planning and policy making it is important to have information about the incidence of the common cancers in the population. descriptive epidemiologic studies measure the occurrence of cancer and other health-related factors in relation to person (e.g. age, sex, race, social class,...

Background Lung cancer is one of the leading cause related death. Most common histopathology lung non-small cell carcinoma which adenocarcinoma most common. There are limited number studies done in Nepal to know different aspects cancer.
 Objective To demographic parameters patients diagnosed as a university hospital. The study also aims histopathological diagnosis Method All presenting ou...

Cancer Nanovaccines In article number 2104849, Mi Liu and co-workers demonstrate a simple universal method to prepare therapeutic preventive cancer nanovaccines based on tumor tissues/cells. Such show both potent efficacy in lung cancer, melanoma, breast cancer. This can be applied make tumor-cell-based for immunotherapy prevention.
