Costlets: A Generalized Approach to Cost Functions for Automated Optimization of IMRT Treatment Plans
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science + Business Media, Inc., 2005-12)
We present the creation and use of a generalized cost function methodology based on costlets for automated optimization for conformal and intensity modulated radiotherapy treatment plans. In our approach, cost functions ...
High-dose cisplatin in advanced head and neck cancer
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-04)
In 22 patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck we evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of 200 mg/m 2 cisplatin administered in 3% NaCl with vigorous hydration. Six patients had previously untreated ...
Phase II Trial of Docetaxel Chemotherapy in Patients with Incurable Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagus
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2002-02)
Background : Chemotherapy remains theprimary mode of treatment for metastaticcarcinoma of the esophagus. The efficacyof various chemotherapeutic regimens hasbeen studied predominantly in patients withsquamous cell carcinoma ...

FDG PET imaging of paragangliomas of the neck: comparison with MIBG SPET
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-11)
Two patients with cervical paragangliomas underwent positron emission tomography (PET) with 2-[ 18 F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG). There was marked tumor uptake and retention of FDG. Adjacent salivary gland accumulation ...
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene expression and secretion by cytokine-stimulated human retinal pigment epithelial cells
(Elsevier, 1992-03)
Retinal and choroidal inflammatory lesions are important causes of visual loss, but the mechanisms regulating intraocular inflammation remain poorly understood. By virtue of its position at the blood-retina barrier, the ...
Multicenter phase II trial of brequinar sodium in patients with advanced squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-03)
A total of 19 patients with advanced squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck who had not previously been exposed to chemotherapy were treated with brequinar sodium as first-line chemotherapy. Brequinar was given ...
Serial studies of autologous antibody reactivity to squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-09)
In previous studies we evaluated the incidence and specificity of autologous antibody reactivity against squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). We were able to demonstrate that autologous antibody reactivity ...
CD68 antigen expression by human retinal pigment epithelial cells
(Elsevier, 1992-07)
Although a primary role of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is the phagocytosis of aged outer segment membranes, the RPE may also phagocytize particulates via several specific receptors that are characteristically ...
