Background.Cervical cancer is the second most common malignancy affecting females in Azerbaijan and one of the main mortality causesin the female population in developing countries. In addition to its high morbidity rate in the developing world,cervical canceris usually diagnosed at late, locally advanced stages: 74% of new cases are IIB – IVA stage and this determines a higher risk of pelvic...

Purpose: To introduce stereotactic treatment performed with a general purpose LINAC for brain lesions management.
Methods and Materials: Between April 2008 and august 2016, 35 patients underwent SRS (26) and SRT (9). The patients’ average age was 51 years old. The indications were: primary treatment in 21 cases (10-meningiomas; 8-schwanomas; 1-ependymoma; 1-pineal germinoma; 1-glomus) and 14...

The Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a promising method to treat malignant brain tumors. The basic principle of this technique is to irradiate the boron-containing tumor with epithermal neutrons. Optimization of the Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) assembly for BNCT has been performed using the Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code (MCNP6) to shape the 2.45 MeV neutrons that are produced in...

Optimization of radiation therapy treatment scheme using mathematical modeling is one of the topical problems in modern radiation oncology. For these purposes formalized description of dynamic processes in clinical radiobiology is used.
Task of justification of radiotherapy dose fractionation schedules can be formulated in terms of the optimal control theory. For example, we fix a total...

Purpuse : Locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) can be salvaged by reirradiation with a substantial degree of radiation related complications.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the dosimetric advantage of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in treating locally recurrent NPC.
Methods : Between January 2015 and September 2016, six patients with no metastatic locally...

Larynx cancer is the one of the most common head and neck malignancy and almost half of these malignancies present at an early stage (T1T2N0). This disease is includes several effective treatment modalities;radiation therapy, endoscopic resection,open partial laryngectomy. The goal of any therapy is cure with larynx preservation, high voicequality, and minimal morbidity.
High dose...
