Re: Adjuvant radiation questioned

This is strange since I thought I just read recently how radiation induced a positive immune effect in addition to directly killing cells left by surgery. Seems there's always the "other hand".

Registration is required to access the article.

Here is an editorial that I think addresses your point: http://breast-cancer-research.com/co...df/bcr2559.pdf

The key is to get the proper dose of rads to the cells.
