Whole-remnant and maximum-voxel SPECT/CT dosimetry in <sup>131</sup>I-NaI treatments of differentiated thyroid cancer.
(2016-10)
Purpose To investigate the possible differences between SPECT/CT based whole-remnant and maximum-voxel dosimetry in patients receiving radio-iodine ablation treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC).Methods Eighteen ...
Preserving quality of life as a key treatment goal in advanced soft tissue sarcomas.
(2018-12)
Introduction Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is a patient-reported outcome that addresses patients' perceptions of symptoms across physical, emotional, cognitive and social domains. As HRQoL is currently rarely ...
Peri-operative chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in operable oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma (UK Medical Research Council ST03): primary analysis results of a multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 2-3 trial.
(2017-03)
Background Peri-operative chemotherapy and surgery is a standard of care for patients with resectable oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma. Bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against VEGF, improves the proportion of patients ...
Re-challenge chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus carboplatin in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
(2013-10)
Despite recent improvements to current therapies and the emergence of novel agents to manage advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the patients' overall survival remains poor. Re-challenging with first-line chemotherapy ...
Predictors for doxorubicin-induced hematological toxicity and its association with outcome in advanced soft tissue sarcoma patients; a retrospective analysis of the EORTC-soft tissue and bone sarcoma group database.
(2018-08)
INTRODUCTION:As both anti-tumour effects and toxicity are thought to be dose-dependent, patients with the greatest toxicity may also have the best outcome. We assessed whether severity of doxorubicin-induced hematological ...

(2018-09)
Background/aim Synovial sarcoma is a soft tissue sarcoma that tends to affect young adults. There are few reports on primary synovial sarcoma of the thyroid and the aim of this study was to document the clinical and ...
Tumor Delineation and Quantitative Assessment of Glucose Metabolic Rate within Histologic Subtypes of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Using Dynamic <sup>18</sup>F Fluorodeoxyglucose PET.
(2017-05)
Purpose To assess whether dynamic fluorine 18 ( 18 F) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has added value over static 18 F-FDG PET for tumor delineation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) radiation ...
