1. Hypoxic Target Volume Determination in PET/CT Imaging : The Impact of Deformable Image Registration
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Sammanfattning : Using a tailored dose distribution for personalized radiotherapy with the help of positron emission tomography (PET) might give an edge for successful tumour elimination. One of the main determinants for tumour radioresistance in several solid tumours has been investigated as hypoxia, including head and neck cancer (HNC). LÄS MER
2. Target Volume Delineation In Hypoxia Dose Painting
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Sammanfattning : Purpose: Tumour hypoxia is the result of uncontrolled growth of the tumour and its vasculature and is often found in solid tumours. It has been known for some time that tumour hypoxia is associated with increased radio resistance and poorer treatment outcomes. LÄS MER
3. The impact of hypoxia on tumour control probability in the high-dose range used in stereotactic body radiation therapy
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/FysikumSammanfattning : The use of stereotactic body radiation therapy employing few large fractions of radiation dose for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer has been proven very successful, high values of tumour control probability (TCP) being clinically achieved. In spite of the success of the fractionation schedules currently used, there is a tendency towards reducing the number of fractions for economical and practical reasons, and also for maximizing the comfort of the patients.
