  2. Patient derived xenograft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patient_derived_xenograft

    Patient derived xenografts (PDX) are models of cancer where the tissue or cells from a patient's tumor are implanted into an immunodeficient or humanized mouse. [1] It is a form of xenotransplantation .

  3. Maximum intensity projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_intensity_projection

    - Volume rendering by high and low threshold for radiodensity. In scientific visualization , a maximum intensity projection ( MIP ) is a method for 3D data that projects in the visualization plane the voxels with maximum intensity that fall in the way of parallel rays traced from the viewpoint to the plane of projection.

  4. Xenotransplantation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenotransplantation

    Xenotransplantation of human tumor cells into immunocompromised mice is a research technique frequently used in oncology research. [45] It is used to predict the sensitivity of the transplanted tumor to various cancer treatments; several companies offer this service, including the Jackson Laboratory. [46]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_treatment_planning

    Doctor reviewing a radiation treatment plan. In radiotherapy, radiation treatment planning (RTP) is the process in which a team consisting of radiation oncologists, radiation therapist, medical physicists and medical dosimetrists plan the appropriate external beam radiotherapy or internal brachytherapy treatment technique for a patient with cancer.

  6. Tomography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomography

    For example, a volume may be viewed by extracting isosurfaces (surfaces of equal values) from the volume and rendering them as polygonal meshes or by rendering the volume directly as a block of data. The marching cubes algorithm is a common technique for extracting an isosurface from volume data. Direct volume rendering is a computationally ...

  7. Bone grafting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_grafting

    Alternatively, exogenous bone can be used: xenograft is the most commonly used, because it offers the advantage of exceptional volume stability over time. Allograft offers the best regeneration quality but has lower volume stability. Often a mix of different kinds of bone grafts is used. [citation needed]

  9. Gastrointestinal stromal tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastrointestinal_stromal_tumor

    Image showing Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor after surgical removal. For localized, resectable adult GISTs, if anatomically and physiologically feasible, surgery is the primary treatment of choice. [23]: 69 Surgery can be potentially curative, but watchful waiting may be considered in small tumors in carefully selected situations. [29]
