  • Title: [Irradiation pneumonitis after high voltage treatment of carcinoma of the breast (author's transl)].
    Author: Castrup W, Wannenmacher M.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1977 Apr; 30(4):182-7. PubMed ID: 404697.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary changes following irradiation after post-operative high voltage therapy of the carcinoma of the breast is usually greater than following orthovoltage treatment. Among our own 635 patients, treated post-operatively with telecobalt including the chestwall, pneumonitis occurred in 35%. The data published in the literature and our own show the need for refined techniques of irradiation and individual planning.
