Dosimetry of translational technique for total body irradiation with electrons in Alderson anthropomorphic phantom, for the treatment of mycosis fungoides

Revista de Medicina e Investigación Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, 2021
Total skin electron irradiation (tsei) is one of the most widely used techniques in the treatment of mycosis fungoides (mf). The objective of this work is to carry out the dosimetric characterization of the translational method using a mobile platform at

[High dose rate brachytherapy].

Revista do Hospital das Clinicas, 1993
The high dose rate brachytherapy uses a single source os 192Ir with 10Ci of nominal activity in a remote afterloading machine. This technique allows an outpatient treatment, without the inconveniences of the conventional low dose rate brachytherapy such as use of general anesthesia, rhachianesthesia, prolonged immobilization, and personal exposition to

High‐dose‐rate interstitial brachytherapy for a bulky sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid: A case report

Clinical Case Reports, 2019
High‐dose‐rate interstitial brachytherapy (HDR‐ISBT) achieved excellent local control of the bulky sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid. However, we must pay attention to dose of eyelid and cornea about late toxicity of HDR‐ISBT.

Out-patient high-dose-rate endobronchial brachytherapy for palliation of lung cancer: an observational study

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2016
Background and Aim. Out-patient high-dose-rate endobronchial brachytherapy (HDREB) is a possible option in the palliation of symptoms in patients with advanced lung cancer, but literature data is limited and the technique is still under development in ...

A Brief Review of Low-Dose Rate (LDR) and High-Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy Boost for High-Risk Prostate

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
For patients with unfavorable or high-risk prostate cancer, dose escalated radiation therapy leads to improved progression free survival but attempts to deliver increased dose by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) alone can be limited by late ...

Optically stimulated luminescent dosimetry for high dose rate brachytherapy

Frontiers in Oncology, 2012
Purpose: The objective was to determine whether optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLDs) were appropriate for in vivo measurements in high dose rate brachytherapy. In order to make this distinction, three dosimetric characteristics were tested:

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Second salvage high-dose-rate brachytherapy for radiorecurrent prostate cancer

Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy, 2017
Purpose : Salvage treatments for localized radiorecurrent prostate cancer can be performed safely when a focal and image guided approach is used. Due to the low toxicity, the opportunity exists to investigate a second salvage treatment when a second ...
