Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Cancer.
Abstract: The importance of oxygen with low LET radiations has been established beyond any doubt in many different systems, both plant and animal. While some studies, especially head and neck tumors, are impressive, it has not been demonstrated unequivocally that...

Abstract: Based on the study of clinical and morphological criteria for estimation of the efficacy of distance gammatherapy under hyperbaric oxygenation in the combined treatment of patients with soft tissue sarcomas, it was concluded that hyperbaric oxygenation...
Abstract: Major areas of progress in radiotherapy over the past decade have included important refinements in equipment and treatment techniques, as well as improved and expanded training programs for radiation oncologists. In 1975, approximately 14% of all new...
Abstract: Sixty-nine patients with radiation necrosis were received by the authors from January 1, 1969 through August 1, 1975. The patients were categorized according to site of injury. Full treatment protocol is discussed including local wound care, antibiotic...
Abstract: Twenty-seven patients with carcinoma of the bladder were treated at the Glasgow Institute of Radiotherapeutics as part of a national hyperbaric oxygen trial. These patients were treated on a 4 MeV linear accelerator either in air or in 3 atm, absolute, of...
Abstract: The literature dealing with radiation myelopathy is reviewed. The following points are to be noticed:radiation myelopathy is a rare complication in the radiation therapy of extraspinal tumors, nevertheless the number of case reports is increasing during the...
