To compare the impact of bicalutamide (B) vs. luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues (LHRHa) on prostate volume, patient-reported side effects, and postimplant urinary toxicity in the setting of interstitial brachytherapy for early-stage pro

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton stereotactic radiosurgery (PSRS) for acromegaly that is refractory to surgical treatment and medication. Methods From 1992 to 2003, 22 patients were treated at our institution for persistent acr

Purpose To review our results with gamma knife surgery (GKS) in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TN), and to determine whether pain relief, medication usage, and the development of facial numbness are affected by trigeminal nerve compression, M

Purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has become a minimally invasive treatment modality for patients with refractory trigeminal neuralgia. It is unclear, however, how best to treat patients with pain that is refractory or recurrent after initial S

Object Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)–related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a member of the TNF cytokine family, which mediates programmed cell death (apoptosis) selectively in tumor cells. The selective tumoricidal activity of TRAIL is believe

Object Photon energy deposition from gamma or photon sources follows the law of exponential decay. Consequently, energy is deposited over the entire path of the radiation beam, resulting in dose distribution before and after the target is reached. In

PURPOSE: We examined whether prostate volume reduction after a short course of androgen dep- rivation (AD) lowered the risks of acute and chronic urinary morbidity related to radioactive seed implantation for low-risk prostate cancer. METHODS AND MAT

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) recurrence, prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM), and all-cause mortality (ACM) were evaluated for men age70 years receiving conventional dose external beam radiation therapy (RT).Between January 1, 1989, and Dece

This work looks at the feasibility of an online adaptive radiation therapy concept that would detect the daily position and shape of the patient, and would then correct the daily treatment to account for any changes compared with planning position. I

242 Background: The supportive care and rehabilitative needs of cancer patients are highly varied and complex, and optimal care planning often requires the provision and coordination of multiple modalities. To address these needs, an innovative model
