CASE STUDY: DOSIMETRIC COMPARISON OF VMAT, IMRT AND 3DCRT TECHNIQUES FOR LEFT-SIDED BREAST CANCER TREATED IN DEEP INSPIRATION BREATH-HOLD

Case study: Dosimetric comparison of VMAT, IMRT and 3DCRT techniques for left-sided breast cancer treated in deep inspiration breath-hold

The aim of this case study was to compare 3D conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) plans for patients treated for left-sided breast cancer (whole breast without positive lymph nodes in deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH)) to volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plans.The original clinical plans used tang

Regulation of RASSF by non-coding RNAs in different cancers: RASSFs as masterminds of their own destiny as tumor suppressors and oncogenes

Ras-association domain family (RASSF) proteins are tumor suppressors and have gained phenomenal limelight because of their mechanistic role in the prevention/inhibition of carcinogenesis and metastasis.Decades of research have demystified wide ranging activities of RASSF molecules in multiple stages of cancers.Although major fraction Dishes of RASS
