Therapeutic Implications of Molecular Imaging With PET in the Combined Modality Treatment of Lung Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Treatment Reviews, 2011
Molecular imaging with PET, and certainly integrated PET-CT, combining functional and anatomical imaging, has many potential advantages over anatomical imaging alone in the combined modality treatment of lung cancer.

Modalities of Treatment for the Combination Syndrome

Journal of Prosthodontics, 1995
A series of destructive changes occurring in the jaws of patients wearing a complete maxillary denture opposed by a mandibular distal extension removable partial denture have been described as the combination syndrome. However, the syndrome does not occur in all patients. Those patients who have not developed signs of the combination syndrome and whose

Combined treatment modalities in esophageal cancer

Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 1989
AbstractEsophageal cancer has been conventionally treated with surgery and radiotherapy for many years. The overall results for all cancers are poor because the majority of patients present late for therapy. The advent of increasingly effective chemotherapeutic drugs—used as single agents and in combination—for squamous cancer has added one more ...

Combined modality treatments in pancreatic cancer

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2012
Of all the carcinomas, pancreatic carcinoma (PC) has the highest mortality rate, with a 1- and 5-year survival rate of 25% and less than 5% respectively. This is regardless of the stage at diagnosis.In this review relevant literature assessing the evidence regarding preoperative and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is discussed.

Combined Modality Treatment of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

The Cancer Journal, 2009
Substantial clinical progress over the last decades has improved the first-line treatment and prognosis of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). This success is mainly based on the introduction of combined modality treatment strategies including chemotherapy in all risk groups and important progress in radiation techniques. The knowledge emerging from

Hypoxia as a target for combined modality treatments

European Journal of Cancer, 2002
There is overwhelming evidence that solid human tumours grow within a unique micro-environment. This environment is characterised by an abnormal vasculature, which leads to an insufficient supply of oxygen and nutrients to the tumour cells. These characteristics of the environment limit the effectiveness of both radiotherapy and chemotherapy ...

Combined treatment modalities of rhabdomyosarcoma in children

Cancer, 1977
Thirty-nine previously untreated children with rhabdomyosarcoma were managed by a coordinated program of surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy during the years 1960 to 1973. The primary tumor was located in the head and neck (24), chest wall (1), abdomen (1), pelvis (10), and lower extremity (3).

Combined modality treatment of gastrointestinal cancer

Current Opinion in Oncology, 1993
During the past year, little of finite value has been published to change the approach to combined treatment modalities for the patient with gastrointestinal cancer. The value of adding other modalities to surgery to improve the cure rate has been marginal.
