Automated Treatment Planning in High Dose-Rate Brachytherapy for Cervical Cancer
Standard care of cervical cancer is chemoradiation therapy followed by a boost to the cervix tumor site with High-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDRBT). HDRBT is a procedure that involves the insertion of radioactive sources into the tumorous area to ablate the cancer. Treatment planning for the …

Feasibility of Using Stereotactic Body Radiation as an Alternative to HDR for Treatment of Cervical Cancers
… to boost volumes at risk in the treatment of cervical cancers. Not all centers have HDR, or LDR capabilities, however, all have at least a linear accelerator. The possibility of using external beam radiation therapy utilizing a Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) or Intensity Modulated …

Noninvasive Assessment of Tumor Hypoxia Using MRI in Clinical and Preclinical Tumor Models
… dose of 30 Gy. BOLD MRI was also assessed in cervical cancer patients in response to breathing oxygen (15dm3/min). Two sequences were tested, multiple-shot EPI and multi echo gradient echo, to allow comparison. Significant correlations were found between BOLD and TOLD MRI and quantitative pO2 …

Guidelines for Culturally Informed Interventions: Culture, Attributions and Continuity of Care
… detection can improve survival of breast and cervical cancer, U.S. Latinas are more likely to be diagnosed at later stages of cancer and have poorer survival rates compared to Anglo women. Poorer continuity of care and adherence to recommended screening are seen as contributing factors to this …

Factors Promoting Human Papillomavirus Mediated Cervical Carcinogenesis
… papillomavirus (HPV) is the causative agent of cervical cancer. Integration of the HPV genome into the host genome is a key event in cervical carcinogenesis, with oxidative stress (OS) likely playing a major role in promoting DNA damage, and subsequently, integration. In our current study, we …
