OBJECTIVE Prostate edema during and following prostate brachytherapy may have a negative impact on implant dosimetry. The purpose of this study was to assess the magnitude of prostate edema during the operative procedure and to develop a nomogram of isotope activity required for compensation of such

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the relevancy of flexible nasoendoscopy as a routine screening procedure of sinonasal adenocarcinoma among people occupationally exposed to wood dust. METHODS This study included woodworkers, occupationally exposed to wood dust. Evaluations were

We have been performing TRUS-guided transperineal prostate brachytherapy with I-125 for prostate-confined adenocarcinoma since October 2003. We examined prostate volume using CT scanning on Day 1, Day 15, and Day 30 in the initial 15 patients, and investigated time-dependent changes of edema

Gastric adenocarcinoma is a rare entity in the pediatric population. Gastric hepatoid adenocarcinoma with elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is seen extremely rarely in children. A 12-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with complaint of abdominal pain. X-ray revealed free air density
