[Fractionation and radiation injury--clinical aspect]
Abstract:
The late effect of normal tissues in altered fractionation was analyzed with our experience and review in clinical trial. In hypofractionation late effect in normal tissues increased in frequency with increased dose per fraction. In the other hand, the optimal ERD or fractionations in MFD were found in larynx, lung and esophagus. The ERD and the frequency of severe late effect in clinical trial with accelerated or accelerated hyperfractionation tended to be less than those of hyperfractionation. However the tolerance ERD in brain and abdominal organ have not been able to determine due to short life span, combined modality and few clinical trial.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
