For patients receiving radiation therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), education and implementation of a standardized cardiac dose quality measure is associated with a reduction in mean heart dose (MHD).
A standardized cardiac dose quality measure can reduce the mean heart dose (MHD) in patients receiving radiation therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
FRIDAY, April 15, 2022 (HealthDay News) For patients receiving radiation therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), education and implementation of a standardized cardiac dose quality measure is associated with a reduction in mean heart dose (MHD), according to a study recently published in Practical Radiation Oncology. Noting that there is significant […]
By raising awareness about the correlation between increased radiation exposure and cardiac events, average doses were reduced without minimizing cancer treatment
