## BACKGROUND. Peritoneal carcinoma has been regarded as a uniformly lethal clinical entity. A treatment plan combining cytoreductive surgery and heated intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIIC) was devised and tested to treat such patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the m
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Metabolic imaging is of interest in esophageal cancer; however, the usefulness of initial standardized uptake value (SUV) in positron emission tomography (PET) is unknown in patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal carcinoma treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy.
Background. The nutritional implications of learned food aversions were evaluated in patients with newly diagnosed cancer receiving either chemotherapy (n = 53) or radiation therapy (n = 49). Methods. Aversion incidence was determined by questionnaires and a food challenge. Measures of dietary and
