Prostate cancer aggressiveness and financial toxicity among prostate cancer patients

The Prostate, Volume 83, Issue 1, Page 44-55, January 1, 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction Financial toxicity (FT) is a growing concern among cancer survivors that adversely affects the quality of life and survival. Individuals diagnosed with aggressive cancers are often at a greater risk of experiencing FT. The objectives of this study were to estimate FT among prostate cancer (PCa) survivors after 10−15 years of ...

Importance of magnetic resonance imaging and prostate‐specific membrane antigen PET‐CT in patients treated with salvage radical prostatectomy for radiorecurrent prostate cancer

The Prostate, Volume 83, Issue 4, Page 385-391, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Accurate staging and identification of optimal candidates for local salvage therapy, such as salvage radical prostatectomy (SRP), is necessary to ensure optimal care in patients with radiorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa). We aimed to analyze performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and prostate‐specific membrane antigen (PSMA)‐

3T MR-Guided Brachytherapy for Gynecologic Malignancies [PDF]

Magn Reson Imaging, 2012, 30(9):1279-90, 2013
Gynecologic malignancies are a leading cause of death in women worldwide. Standard treatment for many primary and recurrent gynecologic cancer cases includes a combination of external beam radiation, followed by brachytherapy. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is benefitial in diagnostic evaluation, in mapping the tumor location to tailor radiation dose,
