Talk:Radiation therapy

Indications

I searched PubMed, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Library for papers on indications for radiation therapy. I was unable to find a single paper giving an overview of the topic, as most papers only talk about indications for a single condition. If there was an overview anywhere then I might guess that it would be in a textbook. Anyway, I did not find one. Blue Rasberry (talk) 15:16, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

"Technological development has led to the more precise delivery of radiation to tumors. Advances in sensitizing tumors to and protecting normal tissues from the effects of radiation and in overcoming radiation resistance are improving the outcomes of radiotherapy."

Article is confusing - mostly about EBRT but mentions others

The intro and most of the content seems to be just about external beam X-ray therapy - but other types are mentioned briefly. Its hard to work out which sections are just about X-ray therapy and which are more general. Should we mention the various types in the intro or make this more of a disambiguation page ? - Rod57 (talk) 12:39, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
