Description
The influence of chemotherapeutic agents on the extent of late normal-tissue radiation injury is reviewed. Alterations in the time of expression of damage after combined treatments are described, as well as the relative contributions of independent toxicities versus interaction. Long-term residual damage after either irradiation or chemotherapy alone is discussed in relation to retreatment tolerance when long intervals between the two agents are allowed. (author)
