Recurrent lumbar-origin osteoblastoma treated with multiple surgery and carbon ion radiotherapy: a case report

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Although osteoblastoma is an uncommon benign bone tumor, it sometimes behaves in a locally aggressive fashion. We herein report a case of recurrent lumbar spine osteoblastoma that was treated by repeated surgery and carbon ion radiotherapy ...

Carbon ion radiotherapy with complete tumor regression for primary malignant melanoma of female urethra orifice: a case report

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022
Primary malignant melanoma of the female urethra (PMMFU) is extremely rare, accounting for 0.2% of all melanomas, and fewer than 200 cases have been reported worldwide. Because of the small number of clinical cases and unclear biological characteristics,

Carbon ion radiotherapy as definitive treatment in non-metastasized pancreatic cancer: study protocol of the prospective phase II PACK-study

BMC Cancer, 2020
Background Radiotherapy is known to improve local tumor control in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), although there is a lack of convincing data on a potential overall survival benefit of chemoradiotherapy over chemotherapy alone.

Carbon-ion Radiotherapy for Colorectal Cancer

Journal of the Anus, Rectum and Colon, 2021
Heavy-ion radiotherapy (RT) is a kind of particle RT, and carbon-ion beam constitutes the primary delivery method of heavy-ion RT. Unlike the conventional photon modalities, particle RT, in particular carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT), offers unique ...

A randomized controlled phase III study comparing hadrontherapy with carbon ions versus conventional radiotherapy – including photon and proton therapy – for the treatment of radioresistant tumors: the ETOILE trial

BMC Cancer, 2022
Background Some cancers such as sarcomas (bone and soft tissue sarcomas) and adenoid cystic carcinomas are considered as radioresistant to low linear energy transfer radiation (including photons and protons) and may therefore beneficiate from a carbon ...

Difference in Acquired Radioresistance Induction Between Repeated Photon and Particle Irradiation

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
In recent years, advanced radiation therapy techniques, including stereotactic body radiotherapy and carbon–ion radiotherapy, have progressed to such an extent that certain types of cancer can be treated with radiotherapy alone.

Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG/PET) shows the effect of carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT); with pathologic confirmation

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Response evaluation of carbon-ion radiotherapy poses a diagnostic challenge. Due to its functional aspects, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG/PET) has a role in the diagnosis of photon radiation therapy.
