Dear Colleagues,
Can someone tell me more about re-oxygenation (in XRT)
-1) this process become only after the first fraction or it is
repetitive? (had a periodicity)
-2) is re-oxygenation dose or dose-rate dependent?
-3) Do you consider normal to decrease (2-3 time) the dose for a second
Fraction (in time of re-oxygenation) because of OER?
-4) can be considered re-oxygenation like a homogenous
phenomena for entire tumour or is it specific only for
very limited tumoral part (a similar logical mechanism like
for angio-genesis)
Appreciate
