SBRT of Eye ball Tumors

By

One need idea and commitment to do innovation. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) is one of Targeted Radiotherapy technique which require accuracy for precisely targeting tumour cells.  Challenges in treatment of eye ball lesions are constant movement of eye ball and if we hold then non availability of verification tools / technique. For this, we recently developed an in-house video cam based verification equipment which made our job easy by making it simple, non-invasive and simple technique.  In this patient, we ask to stare through "tubular vision". That indirectly fix position of eye ball. In the still position, linac presicely targets tumour cells with MV photons.

If first degree relative died of Prostate Cancer.  Investigation for testing of presence of Genetic mutation- If above, then send family member for counseling with "Genetic counselor". Based on case history and available facts, he may decide need of "Germline" or "Somatic" testing for presence of pathogenic mutation that are responsible for developing cancer. These genetic mutations are Lynch ...
