External Beam Radiation Therapy for High Risk/Locally Advanced PCa: The Shifting Landscape
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkopU_7-qiI One of the interesting points was involving RT of prostate bed vs RT of prostate bed plus whole pelvic lymph nodes in lymph node positive patients --- no benefit and no over all survival benefit to RT lymph nodes... their trial results does not support radiating

Radiotherapy
Hi, I’m going for a MRI in the morning, it’s so the oncologist can see if it’s safe to carry out the radiotherapy. The choice has been left up to me if I want it. I asked my surgeon what he thought and he would say either way. I had a grade 2 atypical meningioma removed along with part of my skull

Pet Scan result
Hi all hope your keeping well, my Pet Scan revealed just the one spot on my Spine L2 my Onc said So I am guessing that is good my Onc is sending me for higher dose radiotherapy to try & kill that off. That is the only spot they can see any PC So hoping that gets killed off & gives me more time before

Strange marks on breast

Free-PSA Ratio after Biochemical Recurrence
New study below [1]. Some might recall the use of the free-PSA ratio to cut down on unnecessary biopsies. "The risk of cancer increases if the free to total ratio is less than 25%" [2]. Does the ratio have prognostic value after biochemical recurrence? Apparently it may. "Posttreatment FPSAR>=0.10

Pet Scan result
Rather mixed and still left hanging in mid air. What was seen as suspicious, has after a conference, turned out to be fibrosis, scarring from the radiotherapy, so not cancer after all. Another CTScan has been ordered for 3 months time. A sigh of relief, but then he said "they have spotted something in

Stage 1a triple negative breast cancer
I was diagnosed 1 1/2 years ago with stage 0 triple negative DCIS. I had a lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node removal. It turned out to be stage 1a triple negative breast cancer. The tumor was very tiny and my lymph nodes were clear. I also had 20 rounds of radiation treatment. My oncologist told me

Thank you Spikey for your advice re oxalipatid - I will ask the oncologist when we see him on Monday. Bit of a mix-up with this virus situation, we are in Malta, my husband was diagnosed & then thought why not have the treatment at the Marsden as we live practically next door - then with the quarantine

PET scan shows small hot spot in colon
Dad just diagnosed T4N0M0 ( upper lobe) cancer in right lung. Told radiotherapy will “cure” it! Consultant who fed back to parents this week omitted fact that PET scan showed small hot spot in colon that requires colonoscopy next week urgently! Just when we thought ... fab! Hasn’t spread ... radiotherapy
