Realistic treatment planning.
Some ionizing radiations in specified energy ranges have physical properties which make them useful in treating human cancers, although this method of treatment has limitations. The author describes the limitations which make radiation therapy difficult as compared with such methods as surgery. The advantages and problems of the application of high-energy x-rays and electron sources are discussed. The author discusses specialized instruments and techniques developed for use in modern radiation therapy. The application of these techniques has required the development of systems for comprehensive treatment planning to be made available to many patients.
