Challenges and Innovations in Breast Cancer Screening in India: A Review of Epidemiological Trends and Diagnostic Strategies.

The intricate terrain of breast cancer (BC) in India is examined in this review, which also looks at screening techniques, geographical differences, epidemiological trends, and obstacles to early diagnosis. BC has a major impact in India, especially on women. The research examines data from 2014 to 2024 and finds that, although overall cancer rates are declining, there has been a noticeable increase in BC cases.

Exceptional Tumor Regression in Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma Post-Radiotherapy: A Case Study.

BACKGROUND Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma represent approximately 10% to 20% of all pediatric central nervous system tumors. Classic brain stem symptoms are cranial nerve deficits, long tract signs, ataxia, alone or in combination. Focal radiotherapy has been the standard of care in patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas with minimum response.

Adaptive Radiotherapy for Carcinoma Endometrium With Lymphocele: A Case Report.

The case report details the adaptive radiotherapy management of a 75-year-old female diagnosed with high-grade endometrial carcinoma. The patient, who was known to be hypertensive with no other comorbidities and no family history of cancer, presented with a complaint of bleeding per vagina for six months. Following extensive investigations, she underwent a laparoscopic radical hysterectomy.

Interdisciplinary Approach Toward Reirradiation of Cancer Patients.

As systemic therapies, alongside radiation, for cancer treatment continue to evolve, the radiation oncology community is facing an increasing number of reirradiation (re-RT) of tumor sites subject to recurrences. There are multiple factors associated with choosing re-RT as a treatment option for a previously irradiated site. The factors include the site of previous radiotherapy (RT), the current extent of the disease, the nature of recurrence, the technique used for previous irradiation, and the previous RT details including dose and dose fractionation.

Emerging Applications of Picture Archiving and Communication Systems and Their Impact on Research and Education: A Literature Review.

In recent times, technological advancements have remarkably improved picture archiving and communication system (PACS) capabilities beyond their conventional use in radiology departments. Researchers and instructors have started employing PACS functionalities to improve medical research processes, promote interdisciplinary collaborations, and facilitate learning. To illustrate this point further, the PACS enables researchers to handle and analyze huge amounts of imaging data with superior precision and speed, supporting innovative studies in areas like disease progression, treatment outcomes, and imaging modalities.
