Greetings!
Does anybody out there in cyberspace know anything about radiation-induced
brain necrosis as a consequence of brain tumor radiotherapy? I'd like to
know whether there is any feature of radiation necrosis in normal brain
tissue that distinguishes it from brain tissue necrosis caused by other
agents (e.g. trauma, viruses, chemotherapy, etc.).
Thanks,
Tim Jorgensen
