of about 70 Gy which is usually associated with acute toxicities most importantly of the skin …

Background: Skin is a sensitive organ and should be spared in radiotherapy and irradiation
of skin in radiotherapy can cause to acute and late skin effects such as erythema …

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in Australia. Radiation therapy is one of the
main options for the treatment of cancer. Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a …
