Impact of Immunohistochemical profiling of Glioblastoma multiforme on clinical outcomes: Real-world scenario in resource limited setting.

Objective: Intuition into the molecular pathways of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has changed the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic approaches. We investigated the influence of various clinical and molecular prognostic factors on survival outcomes in radically treated GBM patients.

Methods: Medical records of 160 GBM patients treated between January-2012 and December-2018 with surgery followed by post-operative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) with/without temozolomide (TMZ) were reviewed.

Expanding role of radiotherapy in adenoid cystic carcinoma of the tracheobronchial tree: a new horizon.

Background: Primary adenoid cystic carcinomas (ACCs) of central trachea-bronchi system are rare and heterogeneous tumors. Definitive radiotherapy (RT) is the recommended treatment in surgically unresectable or incomplete resection or in the presence of severe comorbidities.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical features and outcomes of patients with ACC of trachea-bronchi treated with radiotherapy.

Hurdles in radiation planning for glioblastoma: Can delayed-contrast enhanced computed tomography be a potential solution?

Objective: Conformal radiation is the standard of care in treatment of glioblastoma. Although co-registration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with early contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) is recommended for target delineation by consensus guidelines, ground realities in developing countries often result in availability of less-than-ideal MR sequences for treatment planning. Purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of incorporation of delayed-CECT sequences for radiation planning in glioblastomas, as an adjunct or alternative to MRI.
