Nieder, Carsten; Grosu, Anca-Ligia
Abstract:
Background: Radiotherapy of skin cancer in a previously irradiated area is a challenging task with regard to cumulative total dose and consecutive normal tissue toxicity. Methods of biological response monitoring might be helpful in achieving a favorable therapeutic ratio.
