A Comparison of 3D Conformal and Deep Inspiratory Breath Holding vs. 4D-CT Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy for Patients with Left Breast Cancer.

Background: Multimodality is required for the treatment of breast cancer. Surgery, radiation (RT), and systemic therapy were traditionally used. Pharmacotherapy includes different drug mechanisms, such as chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and targeted therapies, alone or in combination with radiotherapy.

Impact of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose PET/computerized tomography on the initial staging and changing the management intent in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective: To assess the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in initial staging of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and its impact on changing the management compared to other conventional methods.

Patients And Methods: A prospective study of 31 patients (21 male and 10 female), mean age 49.3 ± 12.

Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX followed by Chemoradiotherapy for Middle and Lower Rectal Cancer.

Objective: Neoadjuvant concomitant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection is the standard of care in the treatment of rectal cancer. We are investigating the value of adding combination chemotherapy oxaliplatin, irinotecan, leucovorin and fluorouracil (FOLFIRINOX) before neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Methods: Forty-one patients with middle and lower rectal cancer were included.
