Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

722
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiotherapy
  • Breast Cancer Treatment

Context:

  • Breast cancer screening advances lead to more early-stage diagnoses.
  • Breast conserving treatment (surgery + whole breast irradiation) is a standard approach.
  • New radiotherapy techniques are emerging for early breast cancers.

Purpose:

  • To review the indications for partial breast irradiation.
  • To detail the treatment modalities of 3D-conformal APBI and intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT).
  • To present updated results on local control and side effects of partial breast irradiation.

Summary:

  • Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) is a key radiotherapy advancement.
  • 3D-conformal APBI and IORT are primary techniques for APBI.
  • This review covers APBI indications, methods, and outcomes.

Impact:

  • Provides clinicians with updated evidence on APBI efficacy and safety.
  • Informs treatment decisions for early-stage breast cancer patients.
  • Contributes to the evolving landscape of breast cancer radiotherapy.
