Abstract:
This article describes the general principles of radiation therapy, reviews the indications for this treatment modality and discusses the response of tumors and normal tissue to radiation. Radiation modalities and treatment protocols currently available in Switzerland are presented. Treatments of spontaneous tumors in animals contribute to the development of radiation therapy in human medicine at the same time.
