Investigating Low-Velocity Fluid Flow in Tumors with Convection-MRI.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-04-01)
Several distinct fluid flow phenomena occur in solid tumors, including intravascular blood flow and interstitial convection. Interstitial fluid pressure is often raised in solid tumors, which can limit drug delivery. To ...
Characterization of the diffusion coefficient of blood.
(WILEY, 2018-05-01)
PURPOSE: To characterize the diffusion coefficient of human blood for accurate results in intravoxel incoherent motion imaging. METHODS: Diffusion-weighted MRI of blood samples from 10 healthy volunteers was acquired with ...
Non-coplanar trajectories to improve organ at risk sparing in volumetric modulated arc therapy for primary brain tumors.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2016-10-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To evaluate non-coplanar volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) trajectories for organ at risk (OAR) sparing in primary brain tumor radiotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen patients were ...
3D tumour spheroids for the prediction of the effects of radiation and hyperthermia treatments.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-03)
For multimodality therapies such as the combination of hyperthermia and radiation, quantification of biological effects is key for dose prescription and response prediction. Tumour spheroids have a microenvironment that ...
A cellular automaton model for spheroid response to radiation and hyperthermia treatments.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-11-27)
Thermo-radiosensitisation is a promising approach for treatment of radio-resistant tumours such as those containing hypoxic subregions. Response prediction and treatment planning should account for tumour response ...
