6. Long-term side effects after treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma
Sammanfattning : Background Long-term side effects associated with the treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) have frequently been reported during the last decades. Studies have shown increased mortality in HL survivors. LÄS MER
7. Diagnostic and prognostic studies in Hodgkin's lymphoma with special reference to the elderly
Sammanfattning : The introduction of modem staging procedures, and developments in both radiotherapy and chemotherapy have significantly contributed to improved response and survival rates in Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) during the last decades. However, still a substantial proportion of patients succumb from tumour progression and/or complications related to diagnostic procedures and/or treatment. LÄS MER
8. Occupational exposures and malignant lymphoma
Sammanfattning : The incidence of malignant lymphoma, especially non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) has increased over the last few decades. This statement is true despite the fact that methods for diagnosing malignant lymphoma has changed and misclassification has been a problem. LÄS MER
9. Dosimetric effects of breathing motion in radiotherapy
Sammanfattning : The goal of radiotherapy is to deliver a homogeneous high dose of radiation to a tumour while minimising the dose to the surrounding healthy tissue. To achieve this, increasingly advanced treatment techniques, such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and proton therapy, have been developed. LÄS MER
10. Clinical studies in aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with special reference to elderly patients
Sammanfattning : The age-adjusted incidence rate of non-Hodgkin´s lymphoma (NHL), in particular diffuse large B cell lymphoma, has increased continuously during several decades. Patients with aggressive NHL are potentially curable but the 5-year overall survival (OS) is still less than 50% in the whole group. LÄS MER
