Confirmation of thermal dose as a predictor of local control in cervical carcinoma patients treated with state-of-the-art radiation therapy and hyperthermia.

CONCLUSIONS: The positive association between thermal dose and clinical outcome is replicated in an independent, recent cohort of cervical carcinoma patients. Importantly, in patients receiving IGBT, the effect of thermal dose on clinical outcome is still observed. PMID: 31302345 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
