Predictive testing of radiosensitivity in non-small cell carcinoma of the lung.

Abstract excerpt

The paper reviews the prognostic factors which influence the radiosensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer. The clonogenic cell numbers, hypoxic fraction, tumour cell kinetics and inherent radiosensitivity are considered. In the future the measurement of these factors may play an important role in decision making as to the best management for patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
