Journal ArticleDOI
The role of the sentinel lymph node in gastrointestinal cancer.
Yuko Kitagawa,Hirofumi Fujii,Makio Mukai,Tetsuro Kubota,Nobutoshi Ando,Masahiko Watanabe,Masahiro Ohgami,Yoshihide Otani,Soji Ozawa,Hirotoshi Hasegawa,Toshiharu Furukawa,Koichiro Kumai,Tadashi Ikeda,Tadaki Nakahara,Atsushi Kubo,Masaki Kitajima +15 more
TL;DR: The preliminary data, using intraoperative radiation techniques and the gamma probe, suggest that it is worthwhile to continue the evaluation of this procedure to determine its role in an accurate staging and a minimally invasive approach to GI cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiologic Measurements of Tumor Response to Treatment: Practical Approaches and Limitations
Chikako Suzuki,Hans Jacobsson,Thomas Hatschek,Michael R. Torkzad,Katarina Bodén,Yvonne Eriksson-Alm,Elisabeth Berg,Hirofumi Fujii,Atsushi Kubo,Lennart Blomqvist +9 more
TL;DR: The widespread use of multidetector computed tomography and other imaging innovations have made RECIST outdated, with a concomitant need for modifications.
Journal Article
Autocrine growth of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder induced by granulocyte-colony stimulating factor
Masaaki Tachibana,Ayako Miyakawa,Hiroshi Tazaki,Kayoko Nakamura,Atsushi Kubo,Jun-ichi Hata,Tatsunari Nishi,Yasuhiro Amano +7 more
TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that G-CSF production by the bladder cancer cells studied augments autocrine growth, and recommend exercising caution in the clinical use of G- CSF for bladder cancer patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late retinal complications of radiation therapy for nasal and paranasal malignancies: relationship between irradiated-dose area and severity
Atsuya Takeda,Naoyuki Shigematsu,Saburosuke Suzuki,Masato Fujii,Tetsuya Kawata,Osamu Kawaguchi,Takashi Uno,Hideyuki Takano,Atsushi Kubo,Hisao Ito +9 more
TL;DR: Radiation-induced retinopathy and glaucoma are more serious late complications than cataracts, which are easily treated with surgery, and the radiation dose and area irradiated are the most important factors in the development of severe complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible Misinterpretation of Demarcated Solid Patterns of Radiation Fibrosis on CT Scans as Tumor Recurrence in Patients Receiving Hypofractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Lung Cancer
Atsuya Takeda,Etsuo Kunieda,Toshiaki Takeda,Michio Tanaka,Naoko Sanuki,Hirofumi Fujii,Naoyuki Shigematsu,Atsushi Kubo +7 more
TL;DR: Radiation fibrosis, which may occur 1 year or longer after completion of HSRT, is difficult to distinguish from tumor recurrence, even when opacities increase on follow-up radiologic scans.
