Comparison of Mammographic Findings after Conventional Radiotherapy and forward Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy in Breast Conservative Therapy.

Objective: This study aimed to determine and compare mammographic findings after conventional radiotherapy and forward intensity-modulated radiation therapy for breast conservation.

Methods: Eighty-six patients with BCT (373 mammograms) were included between 2010-2015 and had post-treatment mammograms available for review. All mammograms were taken with an 18 × 24 cm detector and 0.

The diagnostic accuracy of mammography and ultrasonography for recurrent breast cancer after breast conserving treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the performance of mammography and breast ultrasonography to diagnose tumor recurrence in patients after breast conserving therapy.

Material And Methods: Imaging findings of 130 breast cancer patients treated by breast conserving therapy (BCT) who have followed up with mammography and ultrasonography at our center between 1 January 2010 and 1st January 2016 were interpreted by two radiologists. The information of recurrent tumor and baseline data were blinded.

Effect and correlation of patent vascular access flow on left ventricular hypertrophy in kidney transplant patients.

Background: Patency of vascular accesses (VA) is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in kidney transplant recipients (KTR). This level of VA flow (VAF) as related to LVH was assessed and an upward level of VA flow recommended for VA closure determined. This recommendation has not been previously reported.
