Radiation oncology towards Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)
Radiotherapy aims to deliver a high radiation dose to a tumour, killing all tumour cells. However, from the physical and technical point of view, a difficult task because malignant tumours are often located close to radiosensitive organs such as the eyes,
Conformal radiotherapy & medical physics
Cancer, a leading cause of death globally. Radiotherapy is essential in managing the cancer patient alongside chemotherapy or surgery for cure or palliation. About 60% of patients receive radiotherapy as definitive, adjuvant or palliative to surgery or chemotherapy each year. Radiotherapy aims to deliver a precise dose of radiation to the defined tumour volume without causing damage to the surrounding normal tissues.
Treatment facilities for brain tumours available locally
Brain tumours are the most typical type of solid tumours in children. Also, they affect many adults each year in our country.
A synopsis of geriatric cancer in Bangladesh
The care of the aged is called clinical gerontology or geriatrics. Ageing is a biological phenomenon and refers to a slow imperceptible, progressive and degenerative process advancing with chronological age leading to increased functional deterioration and vulnerability, ultimately culminating in the extinction of life.
All you need to know about lung cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cancer worldwide in terms of incidence and mortality. Only 15% of patients who develop lung cancer survive for 5 years. There is no definitive population-based cancer registry in Bangladesh, so it is difficult to find out the incidence and mortality of any kind of cancer.
Medical physics in radiotherapy for cancer treatment
The first known reference to cancer or cancer-like diseases in man was documented almost 5,000 years ago. Cancerous disease has been
My Care, My Comfort
The incidence of cancer as a non-communicable disease is increasing globally. Bangladesh is no exception to this. The total number of cancer patients in Bangladesh is about 1.5 million.
Treating cancer during COVID-19
People with cancer appear to be at increased risk of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and their outcomes are worse than those of individuals without cancer. This is especially valid for cancer patients with other diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, kidney disease etc.
