متن کاملHazards and risks in oncology: radiation oncology
Adverse effects and hazards which have their origin from radiation using conventional techniques like 3-D conformal radiotherapy and total radiation doses are well known. However little is known about the sprectum of especially late toxicity after radiation using new technologies like intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) combined with novel target volume and dose concepts. Since IMRT allows ...
متن کاملAdvances in radiation oncology.
Advances in radiation oncology have been made on three major fronts: biology, physics, and clinical application. Our biological understanding of how radiation kills cells and how malignant cells avoid damage has identified new targets for therapeutic manipulation. Research in physics has yielded sophisticated methods to direct the deposition of radiation energy in ways that enhance target cover...
