Aim and backgroundThe change in the prostate size for radiotherapy has not yet been elucidated. The coverage of radiation dose is affected by changes in the prostate size. We evaluated the changes in the prostate, rectum, and bladder wall sizes during IMRT of fraction 2 Gy/day using MRI.Materials and methodsTwenty-four patients with prostate cancer were enrolled in this study. MRI was performed at three time points. While the initial MRI was performed before the start of radiotherapy (RT), the second MRI was performed at 38 Gy (range: 36–40 Gy), which represented the halfway point of the RT course. The last MRI was performed on the day of completion of the RT course (76 Gy; range: 74–78 Gy). We estimated the prostate, rectum, and bladder wall sizes at three time points.ResultsWe observed no significant difference between the estimated sizes of the prostate during RT in all three phases. In addition, the volume of the rectal wall remained unchanged in all phases. However, the volume of the bladder wall significantly decreased from the initial to the last time points. Furthermore, the standard deviation (SD) obtained by subtracting the final size from the initial one was large (mean, 30.1; SD, 10.1).ConclusionsThe volume of the bladder wall decreased during IMRT. The range of subtraction of the volume of the bladder wall was extensive. Thus, the estimation of the bladder wall may be useful to reduce the inter-fraction variation. 相似文献

A tissue uptake experiment was conducted to determine the bioavailability of rumen bacterial Selenium (Se) in mice. The donor animal was wether fed a diet containing 0.2 mg Se/kg dietary dry matter (DM). Ruminal fluid was collected 2 h postprandially. Bacterial-rich precipitate was obtained by differential centrifugation of the ruminal fluids. This was later freeze-dried and mixed in the diet to be used in feeding the mice experiment. Thirty growing female mice with a body wt (mean±SD) of 21.4±0.74 g were housed in plastic cages (5 mice/cage) and allotted equally to three dietary treatments. Diet 1 and Diet 2 were formulated based on AIN-76, except that no Se supplementation in the form of selenite was made in the former. In Diet 3, rumen bacterial matter was 20% of the diet, which gave an equivalent of 0.1 mg Se/kg dietary DM. The other two diets, Diet 1 and Diet 2, had an Se content of 0.025 and 0.1 mg/kg dietary DM, respectively. A 7-d feeding commenced after 7 d of acclimatization of the semipurified diet. Results showed that those mice fed an Se- (selenite) supplemented diet (Diet 2) had higher (P<0.05) tissue Se concentrations than those mice fed the other two diets. No statistical differences were observed on various tissue Se concentrations between Diet 1 and Diet 3, although the latter diet had higher values. Kidney and liver had the highest Se concentrations compared to the other tissues. This study concludes that bacterial Se collected from the rumen of wether is not fully available for absorption in the intestine of the mice. 相似文献
