Radiation therapy choices vary for comprehensive breast cancer treatment. One such option, intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) is employed in many centers around the country. IORT using the Zeiss® Intrabeam® System has been proven to be non-inferior to External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) in local recurrence and disease-free survival. IORT’s advantage is one treatment during ...
ABSTRACT Patients with brain tumors face enormous challenges after diagnosis. Many of these challenges are amplified by issues related to access to care.1‒4 Studies suggest that patients with cancer who live farther from radiation treatment centers have poorer clinical outcomes. In addition, minorities are more likely to perceive longer travel distances as a barrier, which may cause them ...
In recent years, gold nanoparticles (GNP) have been proposed as sensitising agents in radiotherapy. Several studies, performed both through Monte Carlo simulation of dosimetric and microdosimetric enhancement in presence of GNPs and through in–vitro experiments, have clearly shown the powerfulness of such a technique in radiotherapy. Aim of the present work is to estimate the dose enhancement ...
