Radiation Effects in Skin

  • Chapter
Radiopathology of Organs and Tissues

Part of the book series: Medical Radiology ((Med Radiol Radiat Oncol))

Abstract

The skin lies within the primary treatment field of radiotherapy more often than any other normal tissue. Its radiation response is immediately obvious. Before megavoltage radiotherapy was introduced, skin tolerance limited the radiation dose that could be achieved in the tumor and, thus, overall treatment results in radiotherapy.
