Preview- It appears that, conclusion - It is feasible that using ionization (i.e., iontophoresis) chamber method and practical test film for cervical (i.e., cervicalis) cancer IMRT dose pelvic quality assurance and quality control, the measurement results are credible. Cervical, relating to the neck (i.e., cervix (i.e., neck, or cervix of uterus), or collum), or to the neck of any organ or structure. Cervical lymph nodes are located in the neck. Cervical cancer refers to cancer of the uterine cervix, which is the lower (i.e., inferior, or lower tube (i.e., tuba)rcle), narrow end (the neck ) of the uterus (i.e., metra, or womb). IMRT is a type of 3-dimensional radiation (i.e., radiatio) therapy (i.e., therapeusis, or therapia) that uses computer-generated images to show the size and shape of the tumor (i.e., neoplasm). Therapy, treatment. Thin beams of radiation of different intensities are aimed at the tumor from many angles. This type of radiation therapy reduces the damage to healthy tissue near the tumor. Also called intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Cervical cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the cervix (the organ connecting the uterus and vagina (i.e., sheath)). It is usually a slow-growing cancer that may not have symptoms but can be found with regular Pap tests (a procedure in which cells are scraped from the cervix and looked at under a microscope). Cervical cancer is almost always caused by human papillomavirus (i.e., papilloma virus) (HPV) infection. Quality assurance is a process (i.e., processus) that looks at activities or products on a regular basis (i.e., base) to make sure they are being done at the required level of excellence. In clinical trials, quality assurance makes sure that all parts of the trial follow the law and the Good Clinical Practice guidelines (i.e., practice parameters). Also called QA. Pelvic, having to do with the pelvis (the lower part of the abdomen (i.e., venter) located between the hip (i.e., hip bone, or hip joint) bones).
- It has been found that, the disorder affects patients with cancer on bisphosphonate handling for multiple myeloma or bone metastasis (i.e., secondaries) from breast (i.e., mamma, or teat), prostate (i.e., prostata, or glandula prostatica), or lung (i.e., pulmo) cancer. Bone metastasis, cancer that has spread from the original (primary) tumor to the bone. Lung, one of a pair of organs in the chest (i.e., pectus) that supplies the body with oxygen, and removes carbon dioxide from the body. Breast, glandular (i.e., glandulous) organ located on the chest. The breast is made up of connective tissue (i.e., interstitial tissue, or supporting tissue), fat, and breast tissue that contains the glands that can make milk (i.e., strip, or lac). Also called mammary gland (i.e., glandula mammaria, or lactiferous gland). Metastasis is the spread of cancer from one part of the body to another. A tumor formed by cells that have spread is called a metastatic tumor or a metastasis. The metastatic tumor contains cells that are like those in the original (primary) tumor. The plural form of metastasis is metastases (meh-TAS-tuh-SEEZ). Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that begins in plasma (i.e., blood plasma) cells (white (i.e., albicans) blood cells that produce antibodies). Also called Kahler disease, myelomatosis, and plasma cell myeloma (i.e., multiple myeloma). Myeloma, cancer that arises in plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. Prostate is a gland in the male (i.e., masculine) reproductive system (i.e., genital system). Gland is an organ that makes one or more substances, such as hormones, digestive (i.e., digestant) juices, sweat, tears (i.e., lacrimal fluid), saliva (i.e., spittle), or milk. Endocrine glands (i.e., glandulae endocrinae, or ductless glands) release the substances directly into the bloodstream. Exocrine (i.e., eccrine) glands release the substances into a duct or opening to the inside or outside of the body. The prostate surrounds the part of the urethra (the tube that empties the bladder) just below the bladder, and produces a fluid that forms part of the semen (i.e., seed, or seminal fluid). Bisphosphonate is a drug or substance used to treat hypercalcemia (abnormally high blood calcium) and bone pain caused by some types of cancer. Forms of bisphosphonates are also used to treat osteoporosis and for bone imaging. Bisphosphonates inhibit a type of bone cell (i.e., osteocyte) that breaks down bone. Also called diphosphonate. Lung cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the lung, usually in the cells lining air passages. The two main types are small cell (i.e., oat cell) lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. These types are diagnosed based on how the cells look under a microscope.
