Treatment plans were studied for patients with lung and esophageal tumors, patients were imaged using CT-Scan (PHILIP TYPE) and the images were sent to the Treatment Planning System-TPS (ECLIPS type), the system in which the doctor identified the tumor and at-risk organs. Conventional 3D-Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT) and Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) plans were created for the same patients. Treatment plans were compared according to the Dose Volume Histogram (DVH).It was observed that the radiation dose distribution of radiotherapy plans using IMRT technique better suited to tumor size (CTV) and protecting more organs surrounding the tumor, but it takes longer than 3DCRT technology. Therefore it is necessary to determine which patients should be treated with one technique (3DCRT or IMRT) or another technique depending on the full dose given to CTV and the time it generally takes.

The research aims to make a statistical approach to the cases of esophageal atresia by its types and incidence, and to study the surgical treatment outcome and choose the best method of treatment and follow up. The study included 27 newborn patien ts admitted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Al-Assad University Hospital and Tishreen University Hospital in Lattakia, due to diagnosis of esophageal atresia or tracheoesophageal fistula, from the beginning of January 2010 until the end of 2015. 14 of patients were males and 13 were females. Gross classification of esophageal atresia was used, type (C) was found in 21 cases, type (A) was found in 4 cases, type (E) was found in 2 cases, while type (B) and (D) were not seen. We studied The clinical symptoms in newborn patients with this malformation, radial and laboratory findings and associated malformations. We used esophageal contrast study insure the diagnosis when needed. With type (C), we did primary anastomosis in 20 cases and cervical esophagostomy with gastrostomy in only 1 case. With type (A), we did esophagostomy with gastrostomy in all cases. With type (E), we closed the fistula with cervical approach in all cases. The survival rate was 70.4%. Spitz classification was used for risk assessment. The incidence of complications included anastomotic leakage 30% and anastomotic stricture 69.2%.
The aim of the study is repairing some partially damaged archeological wood and restoration it before being completely damaged. For achieving this aim, the radiation technology was used in preparing some polymer blends such as Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA), Poly ethylene glycol (PEG), acrylic acid (AAC), and Acryl amid (AAm) to improving adhesion forces of polymer with wood and protecting it. The results show that the best mechanical properties was achieved by using Poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA), acrylic acid (AAC), and acryl amid (AAm). Also, results show that by increasing the ratio of acrylic acid (AAC), the tensile strength, adhesion force, hardness, transparency, are increasing. The best tensile strength obtained was 4.79 MPa for polymer blends contains 18/% acrylic acid, 6% acryl amid, 12% poly (vinyl alcohol) when exposing to Ultra-Violet ray dose of 210 . Results, also showed that the exposing of wood to Ultra-Violet ray dose of 250 [Gry] was enough for doing sterilization, purification.
Larynx cancer is the most common cancer of the head and neck with the exception of the skin and it accounts for 2% of all cancer diagnoses, its genesis is directly associated with alcohol drinking and smoking, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the m ost common histological type (95%) of larynx cancer. Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate 3D conformal radiotherapy of accelerated system for early larynx cancer and to estimate acute and late toxicity which appear because of irradiated normal tissues around the tumor (thyroid gland, spine cord, ….) and also to evaluate the rate of recurrence and survival. Materials and methods: The study was performed of 44 patients of scc larengeal cancer stage T1/T2, that underwent RT (2015 – 2017), 84% with glottic cancer, the median age was 63 years, all patients were treated 3D conformal RT, Total dose between (60-66) Gy, 2Gy/fraction (5 fractions in week).Our analysis was to evaluate the acute and late toxicity dure and after radiotherapy, and also the rate of recurrence and survival. Results: The most toxicity was dysphagia (42 PTs) 96%, radiodermitis (30 PTs) 70%, the least toxicity was tooth damage. No evidence of late toxicity, the rate of recurrence (11 PTs) 25%, metastases occur in (1 PT). (6/ 41 PTs) 16.4% were dead. Conclusion: Radiotherapy is the important role to control early larynx cancer, and 3DRadiotherapy is giving a large dose to treat the tumor and save the normal tissues around the tumor from effect of radiation, therefor absence the late toxicity.
