Radiotherapy for Rectal Cancer and Radiation-Induced Malignancies from Epidemiological and Dosimetric Data
Preoperative or postoperative radiation therapy is broadly employed in patients with rectal carcinoma. Radiotherapy directs high-energy beams of ionizing radiation toward the tumor area to destroy cancer cells. High radiation doses are needed for cell killing. The radiation exposure of the healthy t...
