Abstract:
The results of radiotherapy with Co-60 and photon X9 MeV in 126 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer are presented. Complete remission was been in 5.5% of the subjects. Remission time ranged from 15 to 57 months. One year survival was been in 48.4% of the patients. Side effects induced by radiotherapy were not been. The rising incidence of lung cancer and the known limitations of surgical therapy imply that this type of therapy should be used more extensively.
