Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women after skin cancer. In Iran, the presentation age of this cancer is younger than the global average. There are different therapeutic methods for treatment of breast cancer and the choice of treatment depends on the stage of the disease as well as its type and characteristics. Therapeutic methods include surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapie...
Introduction: Esophageal cancer is one of the most frequently occurring cancers in Iran and having a high incidence rate among other countries. Radiotherapy is one of the three methods (surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy) for radical or palliative treatment of esophageal cancer. In this method of treatment, the organs such as heart and spinal cord are regarded as organs at r...
Although accelerator technology has matured sufficiently, state-of-the-art x-ray linacs for radiotherapy and cargo-scanning capture merely 30%--50% of the electrons from a thermionic cathode, requiring higher cathode current leaving uncaptured to cause problems such as back bombardment on leading shortening life. Any solution increase should be effective, simple, reliable, compact, low cost in ...
We aimed to analyze the outcomes of hypofractionated high-energy electron beam radiotherapy for the treatment of keloids. From February 1998 to January 2012, 568 patients with a total of 834 keloids underwent radiotherapy: 826 lesions with postoperative radiotherapy, and 36 with skin-grafting. Lesion size was >5 cm in 335 keloids. An electron-beam of 6 or 7 MeV was used, with a total dose of 18...
A retrospective analysis is presented of the results of external beam radiotherapy for retinoblastoma utilising an accurate lens sparing technique. Local tumour control has been assessed in a consecutive series of 67 eyes in 53 children all of whom received external beam radiotherapy as the primary treatment of retinoblastoma. Follow up ranged from 12 to 82 months (median 35 months) with 76% of...
BACKGROUND Photon beam is most widely being used for radiation therapy. Biological effect of radiation is concerned with the evaluation of energy absorbed in the tissues. It was aimed to analyse the depth dose characteristics of x-ray beams of diverse energies to enhance the quality of radiotherapy treatment planning. METHODS Depth dose characteristics of different energy photon beams in wate...
PURPOSE A new cone-beam CT scanner for image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) can independently rotate the source and the detector along circular trajectories. Existing reconstruction algorithms are not suitable for this scanning geometry. The authors propose and evaluate a three-dimensional (3D) filtered-backprojection reconstruction for this situation. METHODS The source and the detector trajecto...
