IMRT in oral cavity cancer [PDF]

Radiation Oncology, 2007
Abstract Background Except for early T1,2 N0 stages, the prognosis for patients with oral cavity cancer (OCC) is reported to be worse than for carcinoma in other sites of the head and neck (HNC). The aim of this work was to assess disease outcome in OCC following IMRT.

Breast IMRT

, 2006
The use of IMRT in the treatment of breast cancer is increasing across the U.S. as a result of the improvements provided in dose homogeneity and normal tissue avoidance.

Dosimetric comparison of the simultaneous integrated boost in whole-breast irradiation after breast-conserving surgery: IMRT, IMRT plus an electron boost and VMAT.

PLoS ONE, 2015
ObjectivesTo compare the target volume coverage and doses to organs at risks (OARs) using three techniques that simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) in whole-breast irradiation (WBI) after breast-conserving surgery, including intensity-modulated radiation

Dosimetric comparison of standard three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy followed by intensity-modulated radiotherapy boost schedule (sequential IMRT plan) with simultaneous integrated boost-IMRT (SIB IMRT) treatment plan in patients with localized carcinoma prostate

Indian Journal of Urology, 2012
Aims: Dosimeteric and radiobiological comparison of two radiation schedules in localized carcinoma prostate: Standard Three-Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT) followed by Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) boost (sequential-IMRT) with ...

IMRT in Hypopharyngeal Tumors [PDF]

Strahlentherapie und Onkologie, 2006
Background and Purpose:: Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) data on hypopharyngeal cancer (HC) are scant. In this study, the authors report on early results in an own HC patient cohort treated with IMRT. A more favorable outcome as compared to historical data on conventional radiation techniques was expected.

Does Dose Volume Histogram of Parotid Glands Correlate with Xerostomia Radiation Therapy Oncology Group Scores in Locoregionally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer Patients Treated with Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy?

Asian Journal of Oncology, 2021
Introduction Xerostomia is an imminent complication of head and neck radiotherapy best assessed subjectively. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of sparing parotid glands with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) on subjective xerostomia ...

Letter. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy for the treatment of breast cancer [PDF]

, 2013
In the systematic review of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in the treatment of breast cancer reported in Clinical Oncology by Dayes and colleagues [1], the only prospective randomised clinical trial (n = 306) testing forward-planned IMRT to have

A Study to Assess the Dosimetric Impact of the Anatomical Changes Occurring in the Parotid Glands and Tumour Volume during Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy using Simultaneous Integrated Boost (IMRT‐SIB) in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancers

Cancer Medicine, 2021
Background Anatomical variations in head and neck cancer during IMRT leads to volume shrinkage, results in dosimetric variations in tumour and normal tissue including parotid glands, with a risk of radiation toxicities.

Relevance of Combined Electron and Photon Beams in Radiotherapy of Head and Neck Cancers in the Era of Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy

Asian Journal of Oncology, 2021
Introduction External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for head and neck (H&N) cancers continues to be delivered using varied technologies, ranging from the old two-dimensional conventional radiotherapy (2DRT) techniques to the modern three-dimensional conformal
