The Technique of Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma
Tumori Journal, 2007Aims and background Conventional radiotherapy in inoperable cholangiocarcinoma is limited by radiotolerance of the surrounding tissues. The aim of our dosimetric study was an evaluation of intensity-modulated radiotherapy in the treatment of inoperable bile duct carcinoma.

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy for lymphoma involving the mediastinum
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2005To determine the feasibility, potential advantage, and indications for intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in the treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma involving excessively large mediastinal disease volumes or requiring repeat RT.Sixteen patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma (n = 11) or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (n = 5) undergoing ...

Education and Training for Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy in the UK
Clinical Oncology, 2010A growing body of evidence as to the benefits of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has led to the recommendation for its adoption as a treatment option for cancer patients within the UK. Routine clinical implementation of this technology has been slow.

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy for head-and-neck rhabdomyosarcoma
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2005To determine the preliminary results of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for head-and-neck rhabdomyosarcoma.Twenty-eight patients underwent IMRT as a part of multimodality therapy. Twenty-one tumors were parameningeal, three were orbital, and four were in other sites. The median age was 8 years (range, 1-29 years).

Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Gynaecological Cancers
Clinical Oncology, 2012Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a newer method of radiotherapy that uses intensity-modulated beams that can provide multiple intensity levels for any single beam direction and any single source position allowing concave dose distributions and dose gradients with narrower margins than those possible using conventional methods.

Conformal and Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy for Cervical Cancer
Clinical Oncology, 2008Three-dimensional radiotherapy planning techniques, including conformal radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy, have potential for improving outcomes in cervical cancer. Accurate target volume definition is essential in order to maximise normal tissue sparing while minimising the risk of a geographical miss.

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy: Is xerostomia still prevalent?
Current Oncology Reports, 2005Conformal radiation with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a technique that potentially can minimize the dose to salivary glands and thereby decrease the incidence of xerostomia. Precise target determination and delineation is most important when using salivary gland-sparing techniques of IMRT.

Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)—an introduction
Radiography, 2002Abstract Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a new radiotherapy technique now coming into clinical use which offers better control of the shaping of dose distributions. This could potentially lead to reduced side-effects due to decreased dose to surrounding structures.

Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
2012External beam irradiation is a common and standard treatment for prostate cancer. Intensity modulated radiotherapyv (IMRT) is a technique of irradiation which allows to generate concave isodoses and then to reduce the dose delivered to organs at risk of toxicities.

Dosimetry of Gated Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy
2000Recent years have seen the development of sophisticated delivery technologies designed to enhance the efficacy of clinical radiotherapy through the escalation of tumor dose. Key among these is the use of intensity modulated x-ray beams now becoming widely available through innovations in multileaf collimator (MLC) technology.
