Prospective study of definitive chemoradiation in locally or regionally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.

Background: The purpose of this study was to present our evaluation of the outcomes of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in patients with locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).

Methods: This was a prospective phase II study. The primary endpoint was complete response (CR).

A prospective study of the impact of fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with concurrent non-contrast CT scanning on the management of operable pancreatic and peri-ampullary cancers.

Background: The role of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET/CT) scanning in operable pancreas cancer is unclear. We, therefore, wanted to investigate the impact of PET/CT on management, by incorporating it into routine work-up.

Methods: This was a single-institution prospective study.
