In this study, a novel multifunctional biofilm was fabricated using a straightforward casting process. The biofilm comprised gelatin, chitosan, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-conjugated zinc oxide nanoparticles, and polyvinyl alcohol plasticized with glycerol. The 5-FU-conjugated nanoparticles were synthesized via a single-step co-precipitation process, offering a unique approach.

- - The survey aimed to gauge Indian radiation oncologists' attitudes and practices surrounding prostate brachytherapy, using a 21-point questionnaire distributed through various channels.
- - Out of 212 responding oncologists, a significant 66% had over 6 years of post-specialty training, yet 44.3% do not perform any interstitial brachytherapy, and 83.3% avoid high-dose-rate (HDR) prostate brachytherapy, primarily due to a lack of training (84.8%).
- - Many oncologists expressed a willingness to adopt prostate brachytherapy if provided with adequate training and facilities, indicating potential for increased implementation with professional development opportunities.
Introduction: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been found to be an effective and safe modality with excellent oncological outcome in medically inoperable primary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and oligometastases. There is scarcity of data on the synchronous delivery of SBRT to primary and oligometastatic RCC in patients unfit for nephrectomy. Here, we report the findings of a retrospective study of prospectively collected data on "total ablative SBRT.

The synthesised particles were roughly 95-100 nm in size. Vero cells cultivated with these nanoparticles showed no cytotoxicity in 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay.

Materials And Methods: Ten patients who underwent high-dose TBI were taken for this study. For each patient, 35 dose plans were created by different combination of pitch and MF.
