The past decade has witnessed a change in landscape of cancer management with the advent of precision oncology. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment and have played an important role in improving patient survival. While the patients are living longer, treatment with ICIs are sometimes associated with adverse effects, some of which could be fatal. Radiologists can play a crucial role by early identification of some of these adverse effects during restaging scans. Our paper focuses on the imaging features of commonly occurring ICI toxicities based on organ system.
在过去十年中,随着精准肿瘤学的出现,癌症管理格局发生了变化。免疫检查点抑制剂(ICIs)彻底改变了癌症治疗方式,并在提高患者生存率方面发挥了重要作用。虽然患者的生存期延长了,但ICI治疗有时会伴有不良反应,其中一些可能是致命的。放射科医生可以通过在再分期扫描中早期识别其中一些不良反应发挥关键作用。我们的论文重点关注基于器官系统的常见ICI毒性的影像学特征。
