Radiotherapy and Radiosurgery

2016
Surgery is the primary treatment modality for patients with craniopharyngiomas. Complete surgical excision is associated with a 5-year tumor growth control of 70–90 % in either adult or pediatric series [1, 2]. For uncompleted resected craniopharyngiomas, local control can be improved with the use of radiotherapy (RT) [3–5]. A few retrospective studies

Radiotherapy in the Aged

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1997
Radiation therapy fulfills all the requirements to be used with curative or palliative intent in nearly every case of cancer in the elderly. Radiotherapy is not associated with acute mortality in older persons and can permit organ and tissue preservation.

Radiotherapy

2009
The intrathoracic growth of the tumor causes several severe symptoms as cough, dyspnea, chest pain, hemoptysis, hoarseness, anorexia/nausea, and dysphagia. In patients with manifest or threatening symptoms radiotherapy (RT) as an effective measure should be implemented into the management concept.

Role of Radiotherapy

2021
Indolent lymphomas are highly radiosensitive. Modern, highly conformal radiotherapy with moderate doses (24–30 Gy) can be administered to virtually any site in the body with few and manageable side effects. In localized indolent lymphomas, primary radiation therapy with moderate doses offers local disease control in virtually all patients and the ...

Radiotherapy and hyperthermia

European Journal of Cancer, 1995
72 patients with either unresectable or pelvic recurrence of colorectal cancer were treated with combined radiotherapy and locoregional hyperthermia. Radiation doses were 50 Gy or more in patients not previously treated with radiotherapy, and 32 Gy (8 x 4 Gy) in patients who had previously received radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy of esthesioneuroblastoma

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2001
Only 3% of all malignant intranasal tumors are esthesioneuroblastomas (ENB). As the tumor is very rare, the number of ENB treated in individual departments is small. In order to evaluate the efficacy of radiotherapy (RT), patients' data of 2 centres were analysed with reference to new reports in literature.From 1981 to 1998, 17 patients with ENB, 8 men

Progress In Radiotherapy

Acta Oncologica, 1995
The 100 years which have elapsed since W.C. Röntgen discovered the x-rays in 1895 have given us a large body of knowledge about the sue of ionizing radiation, and also taught us enough to allow for a statement that there is still much room for improvement.

Conformal radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiotherapy and image-guided radiotherapy

2008
The aim of radiotherapy is to deliver the desired tumoricidal dose to the intended target as accurately and reliably as possible and avoid unnecessary dose to surrounding normal tissues. This principle was recognized when irradiation was utilized therapeutically over 100 years ago and has been the guiding force for development and refinement of modern ...
