  • Title: Radiation therapy for gynecologic malignancies.
    Author: Bradley KA, Petereit DG.
    Journal: Hematol Oncol Clin North Am; 2006 Apr; 20(2):347-61. PubMed ID: 16730298.
    Abstract:
    In the last century, radiation has been successfully used as primary and adjuvant treatment in the management of gynecologic malignancies. It is anticipated that radiation will continue as an integral component in the treatment of cervical,endometrial, vulvar, and vaginal carcinoma. Current efforts are directed at im-proving control rates while minimizing treatment-related toxicities through the use of more conformal external beam radiotherapy techniques, refinement of brachytherapy techniques, and the integration of chemotherapy.
