[Radiation therapy of malignant vaginal tumors]. 1985

K N Kostromina, and A L Bocharov, and N V Kolomiets

A new method of combined radiation therapy for cancer of the vagina is presented: it includes contact (intracavitary and interstitial) gamma-therapy based on the principle of the manual and automated administration (sing the AGAT-B unit) of endostats and low and high activity radiation sources, and gamma-beam irradiation with irregular shaped fields. The problems of fractionation, a choice of required irradiation volumes as well as summary absorbed dose levels are discussed. An analysis of the clinical efficacy was based on long-term results. The 5-year survival rate in the general group of patients was 41.2%.

D005720 Gamma Rays Penetrating, high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei during NUCLEAR DECAY. The range of wavelengths of emitted radiation is between 0.1 - 100 pm which overlaps the shorter, more energetic hard X-RAYS wavelengths. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.
