Manchester scientists are working out how to safely increase the radiotherapy dose given to lung cancer patients - potentially offering improved local control and survival for the patients. Standard treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer is a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Traditionally this is planned in a one-size-fits-all manner but the radiation dose may not always be enough to stop tumour growth. The potential ...Sunday, 31 August 2014
Scientists Find Potential Method to Control Lung Cancer Using Radiotherapy
Manchester scientists are working out how to safely increase the radiotherapy dose given to lung cancer patients - potentially offering improved local control and survival for the patients. Standard treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer is a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
