Description

The clinical efficacy of radiotherapeutic small doses in rheumatoid arthritis (single doses - 0.266-0.4435 Gy, summary - 2.66-4.435 Gy) has been analyzed. An analysis has been made of isolated radiotherapy with the ALG effect, and concomitant ALG therapy plus radiotherapy. A conclusion has been made as to the comparability of a radiotherapeutic effect with an ALG anti-inflammatory effect, nonsteroid drugs, and with the intraarticular administration of hydrocortisone
