Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) is used to treat breast cancer with multiple radiation beam fields with precision while sparing normal tissue. Noteworthy problem with treatment using different isocenters in 3DCRT technigue is undesirably increased radiation doses due to superposition of fields of radiation beams. At this condition, the use of a single isocenter appears to be a suitable solution, the objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of 3DCRT with full beam technique (single isocenter) and evaluate effect high-energy photon beam during whole breast irradiation on healthy tissues, planning target volume, dose homogeneity, and dose of organs at risk (such as heart, cord, Right lung, Left lung, and spinal cort)
MethodsRadiotherapy Treatment of 50 patients with left-sided breast cancer treated to a prescribed dose of 40.05 Gy in 20 fractions, 5 fractions per week during 4 weeks. The treatment plans Executed by using Linear accelerator (Elekta Synergy) with single isocenter for evaluation of clinical outcomes based on three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) technique with full beam plan
ResultsMean dose Gy for planning target volume PVT was (40.53± 0.46 Gy). The dose for complete beam planning methods was 40.050Gy, and Conformity Index CI < 1. The mean heart doses were (476.7±314.6 cGy), and the heart was exposed to dose 4.4±4.5 cGy the low dose volume in this technique was less than Similarly, the left lung was exposed to the low dose volume (V20) was 0.020 cGy, but for the right lung (V20) was zero. The mean dose of the left lung was (10.18Gy), but with the right lung was (0.0882 Gy). The Spinal Cord Max dose
CONCLUSIONcomplete planning treatment plan achieved improved dose homogeneity and superior outcome with regard to dose to normal tissues.

Page 7Background and Objective
Liver transplantation is an accepted treatment for patients who present with end-stage liver disease. However, LT is restricted due to a lack of suitable donors, and further on this imbalance between supply and demand leads to death for those who are awaiting in the waiting list. Specialists use MELD to assign the donor organ to the recipient and predicting the survival of patients after liver transplantation, but this index alone will not be suitable for this task and has some weaknesses. Therefore, other indicators need to be selected so that they can have a more appropriate allocation and better predictive power.The optimal allocation in waiting time and predicting the survival of patients after liver transplantation is a problem that might be answered using data mining techniques. The purpose of the present study is to review and compare the different data mining, machine learning, and deep learning techniques in the articles published in this area.
MethodUsing relevant keywords, international databases relevant materials were investigated. After limiting the search strategy and deleting the duplications, the rest of the valid papers were screened by examining the title and abstract. In order to increase the sensitivity of the searching procedure, reference lists of papers were also examined. Finally, 42 articles related to the subject of research were selected from 1994 to 2020.
ResultsSince this process has some complications for further implementation, the whole process must be created and developed as an LT decision support system which might amend to current HIS or medicine 2.0 as a new module. The latter has to be monitored and further enhanced through feedback given during the development phase
ConclusionBy reviewing the literature, we found that artificial neural network (ANN), ensemble models such as random forest (RF) and Gradient boosting machine (GBM) and their combinations among other data mining models, have shown the best results in the allocation problem and forecasting graft survival after LT.
