📽️ New video alert! Endometrial cancer treatment often involves surgical treatment, however, some patients are at higher risk of recurrence. In this video, we explore brachytherapy, a focused radiation treatment after surgery, to reduce the risk of cancer growth. https://lnkd.in/eSsGpqt7 #gynecology #endometrialcancer #gyncancer #gynecologiccancer #simplecancerexplanations #women #womenshealth #men #menshealth #health #patient #doctor #digital #video #PRIMR

Spinal navigation may cause approximately 1 cancer for every 1000 kids treated for scoliosis. Im really proud of this research collaboration between Brigham and Boston Children's Hospital and hope it raises awareness... Navigation in spine surgery is quickly becoming the standard of care, but it is not without risks, especially in our young scoliosis populations, who are predominantly female and particularly vulnerable to the effects of radiation and risk of cancer. We need to raise awareness and drive innovative spine technologies and protocols that optimize the efficacy and safety of spine surgery and reduce radiation exposure. #spine #spinesurgery #spinehealth #scoliosis #harvard Our full article in the Spine Journal is available at the link below https://lnkd.in/eAxr34kq

I applaud this work from Andrew Simpson, MD, MBA! This data seems crucial to help surgeons decide whether it is worth navigating or - if you extrapolate this study - to screw verification (thanks Ryan Morton, MD, FAANS to point this out). It also keeps the whole community honest - there has been a lot of "low-dose" and even "no dose" marketing out there! At nView medical we believe that navigation and screw verification are both crucial, but we have developed novel ways to create 3D images with less radiation and to have AP & LAT long film images to minimize the total radiation to the patient. Are we pushing the envelope in this quality vs. safety trade-off? Let me know your thoughts!

When adjusting for variables including surgery type, surgery time, simplified acute physiology score 3, BMI, sex, age, and treatment center, the hazard ratio for cumulative 28-day mortality in 2020 vs 2019 was 4.19 (95% CI, 2.09-8.41). https://lnkd.in/eA6iPfYX #cancer #oncology

Kidney cancers are in increasing trend. More and more young people are coming up with large tumour. Usually this tumour is symptomless so remains undetected until it spreads and become inoperable. Recently operated a 38 years Software engineer with 10 cms tumour. He was cured with laparoscopic surgery with quick recovery. Patient went home 2 days after surgery. Regular health check helps us to detect tumour early. Early detection gives a chance to completely cure the cancer. #kidneycancer #cancerawareness #laparoscopicsurgery

Brain tumors are rare but impactful, affecting 1.4% of new cancer cases yearly. Symptoms vary widely, from headaches to cognitive changes. Early diagnosis through MRI or CT scans is crucial. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. World Brain Tumor Day serves as a reminder of the importance of early detection, research, and support for individuals facing the challenges of brain tumors. #WorldBrainTumorDay #WorldBrainTumorDay2024 #BrainTumor #BrainTumorAwareness #BrainTumorDay #BrainTumorSymptoms #BrainTumorSurvivor #BrainTumorWarrior #MemoryLoss #SeekMedicalAdvice #HealthMatters #MentalHealth #HealthyLife #Prevention #HealthandWellness #WellnessJourney #TogetherWeAreStronger #GKNM #GKNMH #GKNMiOP #GKNMHospital
