Abstract

Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide, with mortality rates continuing to rise annually. According to WHO data in 2021, approximately 1.8 million deaths were caused by lung cancer, making it a significant global health problem. In Indonesia, the prevalence of lung cancer is also increasing, especially in the elderly and among active and passive smokers. Radiotherapy is one of the main modalities in the management of lung cancer, especially for patients who cannot undergo surgery. With technological advances, Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) was developed to improve the precision of radiation dose delivery while still protecting healthy tissue around the tumor. This study aims to systematically review the literature on the effectiveness and safety of Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) compared with conventional techniques, such as Three-Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy (3D-CRT). The method used was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines for international articles published in the last five years (2019–2024). Research results show that IMRT can reduce radiation doses to vital organs such as the heart, contralateral lung, and spinal cord, while reducing cardiopulmonary toxicity without compromising tumor control. IMRT derivative techniques such as Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) and Simultaneous Integrated Boost IMRT (SIB-IMRT) have also been shown to improve radiation accuracy and patient quality of life. IMRT is an important innovation in radiation oncology that is effective, safe, and has the potential to become the gold standard for lung cancer radiotherapy in the future.

Abstract

Head trauma is an injury caused by impact or mechanical force to the head that causes temporary or permanent brain dysfunction. Rapid and accurate evaluation is essential for determining appropriate treatment. CT scanning is the primary modality in the initial assessment of head trauma due to its widespread availability, speed of examination, and ability to detect acute intracranial hemorrhage. Conversely, MRI provides higher soft-tissue resolution and is highly sensitive for detecting diffuse axonal injury or contusions that are not visible on CT scans. The identification stage was conducted by searching the literature using keywords such as "head trauma," "traumatic brain injury," "CT scan vs MRI," "diagnostic accuracy of CT," and "MRI diffuse axonal injury." The screening process involved selecting articles based on titles and abstracts and excluding duplicates, non-clinical studies, non-scientific journal publications, and studies without quantitative data. Successful articles then proceeded to the eligibility stage with a full-text review to ensure that the studies directly addressed the diagnostic performance of CT scanning and MRI in head trauma cases. This demonstrates the importance of both modalities, each with its own advantages. MRI has higher sensitivity and accuracy in detecting non-hemorrhagic parenchymal lesions such as diffuse axonal injury (DAI), contusions, and microhemorrhages. Conversely, CT scans are superior in detecting acute hemorrhage, skull fractures, and cerebral edema that require immediate treatment. MRI is superior for detecting non-hemorrhagic lesions, but CT remains the first choice in the acute phase. The combination of the two provides the most comprehensive diagnostic evaluation.
