Cardiotoxicity after the lymphoma
Özen, Alaattin; Fayda, Merdan (Istanbul Tip Fakultesi, 2022)SUMMARY Radiotherapy (RT) is the cornerstone component of the current successful treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Although RT has been used alone to cure in most patients in decades, combined modality regimes are preferred ... -
Clinical utility of a 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging-guided linear accelerator during conventionally fractionated and hypofractionated prostate cancer radiotherapy
Türkkan, Gorkem; Bilici, Nazli; Sertel, Hüseyin; Keşküş, Yavuz; Alkaya, Sercan; Özkırım, Müge; Fayda, Merdan (PMC, 2022)Purpose: To report our initial experience with 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) linear accelerator (LINAC) in prostate cancer radiotherapy in terms of its use in a radiation oncology clinic. Methods: The medical ... -
Computed tomography-guided optimization of needle insertion for combined intracavitary/interstitial brachytherapy with utrecht applicator in locally advanced cervical cancer
Tambas, Makbule; Tavlı, Büşra; Bilici, Nazlı; Dizman, Aysen; Sertel, Hüseyin; Fayda, Merdan (Elsevier Inc., 2021)Purpose: There are no international guidelines for optimal needle insertion during interstitial intracavitary brachytherapy (IS-ICBT) for cervical cancer. We aimed to investigate the clinical feasibility and added value ... -
Development of independent mu/treatment time verification algorithm for non-imrt treatment planning: a clinical experience
Tatlı, Hamza; Yücel, Derya; Yılmaz, Sercan; Fayda, Merdan (Amer Inst Physics, 2018)The aim of this study is to develop an algorithm for independent MU/treatment time (TT) verification for non-IMRT treatment plans, as a part of QA program to ensure treatment delivery accuracy. Two radiotherapy delivery ... -
Dosimetric comparison of volumetric-modulated arc therapy and dynamic conformal arc therapy in three-fraction single-isocenter stereotactic radiosurgery for multiple brain metastases
Turkkan, Gorkem; Bilici, Nazli; Sertel, Huseyin; Tavli, Busra; Ozkirim, Muge; Fayda, Merdan (KARE PUBL, 2022)Abstract OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to compare single-isocenter volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and dynamic conformal arc therapy (DCAT) techniques in patients who received multifraction stereotactic ... -
GAS5 oligonucleotides as therapeutic agents in breast cancer
Fayda, Merdan; Gezer, Uğur (Ame Publ Co, 2016)Although relatively less is known about the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) than the essential protein coding genes, several of them have organismal functions such as lethal knockouts, apoptosis etc. (1,2). Growth arrest ... -
