Purpose: While tumor volume reduction following radiation has been documented in myxoid liposarcomas, it is unclear whether large tumors experience similar volume reduction to smaller tumors.
Materials and Methods: MRI studies performed before and after completion of pre-operative radiation therapy (RT) were examined. Tumor sizes were noted and categorized as large versus small based on size >10 cm. Tumor volumes... |

Purpose: Intracavitary brachytherapy is one of the important methods of gynecological cancer treatment. The effect of attenuation is not considered in the dose calculation method released by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Task Group No. 43 Report (TG-43). In this study, the effect of high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy applicators on dose distribution was measured using Gafchromic films... |

Purpose: Ablative treatment of oligometastases has shown survival benefit with certain tumors, although these effects still are to be demonstrated in prostate cancer.
Materials and Methods: We analysed the toxicity and clinical control results obtained in patients with bone-only oligometastatic prostate cancer treated with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR). Retrospective study on patients with metachronous oligoprogression and synchronous de novo bone-only... |

Purpose: To compare biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS) and toxicity outcomes of high dose rate brachytherapy (HDRB) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) boost after elective nodal irradiation for high/very high-risk prostate cancer.
Materials and Methods: a retrospective analysis was performed in 149 male. In 98 patients, the boost to the prostate was delivered by HDRB as 2 fractions of 10 Gy... |

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is most common malignancy of minor salivary glands in adults. Pulmonary MEC is extremely uncommon comprising of only 0.1%–0.2% of the primary lung malignancies and <1% of primary bronchial tumors. It is even rarer in children and literature limited to few case reports only. Here we present a case report of a 9-year-old boy diagnosed with primary... |
