A simplified method for intracavitary radiation for recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Abstract:

:A simplified method for constructing a custom-made mold to hold radium for intracavitary radiation therapy of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma was developed. The technique for fabrication and insertion of the mold in a single operative procedure is described. Computer dose distributions were obtained and the applications were well tolerated by the patients.

  • Augmented arterial flow and pressure resulting from selective injections through catheters: clinical implications.

    abstract::Injection of fluid through catheters positioned selectively in arteries results in substantial increases in flow and pressure in those arteries for the duration of the injection. This produces certain artifacts which may lead to misinterpretation of the arteriograms. Apparent direction of flow in major vessels, extent...
