Title: [A comparative analysis of the brain computer tomography in patients with acromegaly before and after gamma-therapy]. Author: Balkanov AS, Stashuk GA, Poliakov PIu, Sherman LA, Bychenkov OA. Journal: Vestn Rentgenol Radiol; 1999; (3):41-5. PubMed ID: 12717881. Abstract: The data given in the paper suggest that X-ray computed tomography is highly effective in evaluating the characteristics of pituitary adenomas in acromegaly and in revealing the changes caused in the pituitary adenoma by gamma-ray teletherapy. The use of brain computed tomography yielded data on the main X-ray criteria to be used in the follow-up of patients undergone radiation therapy for acromegaly.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
