Objective To analyze the therapeutic efficacy and treatment related toxicities for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer treated with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) combined with concurrent chemotherapy. Methods From January 2007 to February 2008, 181 patients with stage ⅡA-ⅣA cervical cancer were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with CT-based three-dimensional external beam and 192Ir intracavity radiotherapy combined with concurrent weekly cisplatin-based chemotherapy. The median age was 50 years (range, 32 to 82 years). The overall survival ( OS), disease-free survival (DFS) and local control (LC) rates were calcalated by Kaplan-Meier method and the difference was compared using Log-rank test. The treatment related toxicities were evaluated according to Radiotherapy Oncology Group (RTOG) criteria. Results With a median follow-up time of 34 months and following rate of 92. 2%, the 3-year OS, DFS and LC rates were 73.4%, 70. 4% and 91.3%,respectively. The 3-year OS rate was 66. 9% for patients with tumor diameter ≥4 cm and 86. 4% for those with tumor diameter ＜4 cm( χ2 =6. 29 ,P =0. 012). The incidences of grade 1 and grade 2 acute toxicities of the lower gastrointestinal tract and the genitourinary system were 40. 0% ,45.0% and 19. 9% ,4. 4%,retrospectively. There were no grade 3 or more acute toxicities. The incidence of grades 3 or 4 late toxicities of the lower gastrointestinal tract was 4. 9%. Conclusions CT-based three-dimensional external beam and 192Ir intracavity radiotherapy combined with concurrent chemotherapy can achieve good therapeutic effects for locally advanced cervical cancer. The acute and late toxicities are significantly reduced compared with historic controls as a result of incorporation of 3DCRT technique.

Objective To evaluate the effect and side effects of Kezhi capsule in short-term treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods 60 NAFLD cases of outpatients according to the inclusion criteria of were randomly assigned to two groups: the treated group-30cases with the prescription of Kezhi capsule , and the control group-30cases with the prescription of Xuezhikang. The treatment Course of taking Kezhi capusule (1.25 g, tid, po) and Xuezhikang(0.6 g, bid, po)was 24 weeks. Results After treatment in both groups we saw the significant decrease of the levels of ALT, AST, TC, TG, LDL-C, CREAT, BUN, BMI and TCM Syndromes scores, and the improvement of the ultrasonographic findings of liver steatosis. In the Xuezhikang group we saw higher decrease of TC and TG than the Kezhi capsule group with statistic difference (P < 0.05), while in Kezhi capsule group we saw higher decrease of BMI , TCM Syndromes scores and the improvement of the ultrasonographic findings of liver steatosis than the xuezhikang group with statistic difference (P < 0.05). Conclusions The results show that kezhi capsule is effective for the treatment of NAFLD without obvious side effects.

Objective To investigate the correlation between dose volume histogram(DVH)of tumor targets and organs at risk(OAR)at CT-image based 192Ir brachytherapy and effects and complications for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Methods Ten patients with FIGO stage ⅢB cervical cancer received CT image-based 192Ir intracavitary brachytherapy after 54 Gy of three-dimentional four-field pelvic external beam radiotherapy and concurrent weekly cisplatin chemotherapy. Before each brachytherapy,CT images were acquired with applicators in place. Gross tumor volume(GTV), clinical target volume (CTV)and OAR were contoured and inverse treatment planning was designed and optimized by using PLATO treatment planning system. Conventional two-dimensional plans were also designed for comparison.The total intracavitary brachytherapy dose was 30 -42 Gy in 5 -7 fractions. The patients were followed, and the local control and complications were analyzed. The biologically equivalent dose(BED)and biologically equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions(BED2)for GTV, CTV and OAR were calculated. The minimum dose in the most irradiated tissue volume 2 cm3(D2 cm3)adjacent to the applicator of the sigmoid colon, rectum,bladder and small bowel was determined from the DVH. Results The 1-year local pelvic control rate was 90% and grade 1-2 late complication of sigmoid colon and rectum was 50%. No grade 3 or more complications developed. On CT-image based planning, the BED and BED2 to 90% of the CTV(D90)were 95.50 Gy ± 7. 81 Gy and 79. 73 Gy ± 6. 57 Gy. The BED and BED2 to 90% of the GTV(D90)were 101.86 Gy ± 7.27 Gy and 84. 95 Gy ± 6. 1 Gy. The volume enclosed by 90% of prescribed dose(V90)for GTV and CTV were 92% ±4% and 87% ±7% respectively. The D2cm3 for rectum and sigmoid colon were 74. 97 Gy ±1.64 Gy and 67. 93 Gy ± 4. 30 Gy(EQD2, α/β = 3). Comparing with 2D brachytherapy plans , CT - image based planning has improved D90 and V90 for GTV and CTV with similar dose at point A and rectum reference point. Conclusions Computer tomography-image based 192Ir brachytherapy has resulted in the better dose distribution to the tumor targets with excellent tumor control and acceptable toxicity.

Purpose:The image information and technique of positron emitter nuclei generated by high energy X-ray photonuclear reactions with body tissues from MM50 is studied.It is explored to verify for dose delivery and location monitoring in tumor target after high energy photon radiation therapy with the image information.Materials and Methods:The technique is based on the photonuclear reactio-as in body tissues elemental composition ~(12)C,~(16)O and ~(14)N with high energy X-Ray,energies well above 20 MeV,resulting primarily in ~(11)C and ~(15)O but also ~(13)N.The induced positron activity distributions were scanned off-line in a PET/CT after irradiation.The activity distributions and position may be used to verify for dose delivery and location in tumor target.These radiations are similar to RT in three fields with some different dose delivery from TPS.The phantom began to be scanned off-line in a PET/CT a couple of minutes after irradiation.The scanning time is respectively 20 minutes and(2～5)mniutes for ~(12)C and ~(16)O.The levels of the beam energy are 10MV,25MV,50 MV.The extent of dose is 1.0 Gy～10.0 Gy.Since measured PET images change with time post irradiation,as a result of the different decay tim-es of the radionuclides,the signals from activated ~(12)C,~(16)O within the irradiated volume could be separated from each other.Most informationis obrained from the carbon and oxygen radionuclide's which the most abundant elements are in soft tissue.A brain phantom Rlade oneself was irradiated with high energy X-ray beams from IBA MM50.The 3D radiation treatment planning system,Nucletron-TPP 3.2,was used to calculate the delivered dose distributions.The phantom was directly simulated in the Nucletron-TPP after CT scan.PET/CT is fro-m GE Discovery LS Ⅱ.Resuits:It was confirmed that no activity was detected at 10 Mv X-ray energy,which was far below the energy threshold for photonuclear reactions.Totally 25 MV X-ray beams can produce photonuclear reactions and get to activity distributions images in PET/CT.It need to greater dose in order to good images information.For 50 MV X-ray beams,2 Gy-3 Gy dose,a normal RT dose,can get to activity distributions images.Conclusions:It was concluded that the PET-CT image acquired from the activity of the ~(15)O and ~(11)C positron emitter nuclei might provide the area and dose distribution information of 50 MV X-ray irradiation in a phantom.It can verify the in vivo dose delivery and location in tumor target after high energy X-ray RT.
