Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

82
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...

Clinical Trials

6.6K
Clinical trials are prospective experimental studies conducted on humans to determine the safety and efficacy of treatments, drugs, diet methods, and medical devices. Using statistics in clinical trials enables researchers to derive reasonable and accurate conclusions from the collected data, allowing them to make wise decisions in uncertain situations. In medical research, statistical methods are crucial for preventing errors and bias.
There are four phases in a clinical trial. A phase one...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiotherapy
  • Patient-Centric Care

Background:

  • Patient-centred radiotherapy prioritizes patient needs and preferences.
  • Current guidelines for personalized radiotherapy are lacking.
  • A multidisciplinary consensus is needed to establish best practices.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop national consensus recommendations for patient-centred radiotherapy.
  • To guide best practices in both clinical trials and routine radiotherapy care.
  • To address patient needs throughout the radiotherapy journey.

Main Methods:

  • A multidisciplinary working group including healthcare professionals and patient advocates was formed.
  • Scoping reviews were conducted on information, decision-making, and outcomes in radiotherapy.
  • Recommendations were refined through consultation with 12 patient advocates.

Main Results:

  • There's a critical need for enhanced patient support before, during, and after radiotherapy.
  • Patient information must be individualized and co-created with patients; shared decision-making (SDM) is under-implemented.
  • Real-world data and patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) are crucial for understanding long-term effects and quality of life.

Conclusions:

  • The radiotherapy community must embrace changes to enhance patient-centred care.
  • Recommendations aim to guide best practices for patient-centred radiotherapy.
  • Ensuring equity in access to radiotherapy, trials, and survivorship services is a priority.
