Radiation Dose Reduction at Pediatric CT: Use of Low Tube Voltage and Iterative Reconstruction.
Yasunori Nagayama,Seitaro Oda,Takeshi Nakaura,Akinori Tsuji,Joji Urata,Mitsuhiro Furusawa,Daisuke Utsunomiya,Yoshinori Funama,Masafumi Kidoh,Yasuyuki Yamashita +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of tube voltage on the surface radiation dose, window settings, accentuation of metallic artifacts, deterioration of low contrast detectability at low-dose settings, interscanner variation of x-ray spectra, and a comparison with the use of a spectral shaping technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of dynamic mri in the evaluation of head and neck cancers treated with radiation therapy
Yuji Baba,Mitsuhiro Furusawa,Ryuji Murakami,Toshimi Yokoyama,Yuji Sakamoto,Ryuichi Nishimura,Yasuyuki Yamashita,Mutsumasa Takahashi,Takeru Ishikawa +8 more
TL;DR: Dynamic MRI proved to be useful in the evaluation of the radiation therapy of head and neck cancers treated with radiation therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic factors of glottic carcinomas treated with radiation therapy: value of the adjacent sign on radiological examinations in the sixth edition of the UICC TNM staging system.
Ryuji Murakami,Ryuichi Nishimura,Yuji Baba,Mitsuhiro Furusawa,Norihisa Ogata,Eiji Yumoto,Yasuyuki Yamashita +6 more
TL;DR: The UICC sixth edition appears to identify correctly patients with T3 lesions as a high-risk group of glottic carcinoma, and factor analysis confirmed the adjacent sign as an independent prognostic factor.
Journal Article
Dynamic Helical CT of T1 and T2 Glottic Carcinomas: Predictive Value for Local Control with Radiation Therapy
Ryuji Murakami,Mitsuhiro Furusawa,Yuji Baba,Ryuichi Nishimura,Fumihiro Katsura,Masao Eura,Keisuke Masuyama,Mutsumasa Takahashi +7 more
TL;DR: Whether dynamic helical CT can predict local control of early (T1 and T2 stage) glottic carcinomas treated with definitive radiation therapy is determined and prognostic information for the results of definitive radiation Therapy is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histopathological changes in parotid and submandibular glands of patients treated with preoperative chemoradiation therapy for oral cancer.
Keiko Teshima,Ryuji Murakami,Ryoji Yoshida,Hideki Nakayama,Akimitsu Hiraki,Toshinori Hirai,Yuji Nakaguchi,Naoko Tsujita,Etsushi Tomitaka,Mitsuhiro Furusawa,Yasuyuki Yamashita,Masanori Shinohara +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that acinar cell loss is a main contributor to changes in the volume and function of irradiated human parotid and submandibular glands and the CT value may reflect the adipose ratio rather than salivary function.
