Abstract

We set out to determine the factors that predict the outcome of conventional radical radiotherapy for inoperable non-small cell lung cancer. A retrospective casenote review was carried out of all 69 patients treated between 1986 and 1992 at the Northern Ireland Centre for Clinical Oncology, Belfast, with radical radiotherapy for inoperable non-small cell lung cancer. The tumour dose ranged from 45 Gy to 67.5 Gy, delivered in 15-30 fractions, 5 days per week over 3-6 weeks. All patients were followed up for 5 years.We set out to determine the factors that predict the outcome of conventional radical radiotherapy for inoperable non-small cell lung cancer.
