Carcinoma of the esophagus: an analysis of results and of treatment techniques.

Results of radiation therapy in 85 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus are presented. Whereas the majority of patients with this tumor have been shown to die within the first year, occasional patients may survive longer (21.5 percent in this series); late radiation complications must therefore be maintained at a minimum. A localization technique to evaluate esophageal mobility away from the spinal cord is described.

Relationship between RBE and depth dose for 23-MeV electrons.

A study comparing the RBE in depth of 23-MeV electrons was performed. A mouse sarcoma (KHT) maintained by serial passage in the C3H/HeJ female mouse was irradiated. Under the 23-MeV electron beam at the 100-percent and 14-percent isodose positions and under the 60Co beam at the 100-percent isodose position. The data failed to demonstrate a difference in biological effectiveness for the 23-MeV electron beam comparing the 14-percent isodose to the 100-percent isodose position.
