Techniques first developed for the treatment of classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) have been used with considerable success in acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients with the early stages of the epidemic form of KS. Single doses of radiation or larger amounts applied as fractionated doses can produce short-term regression of cutaneous lesions with minimum morbidity. Fractionated doses applied to the foot, genitalia, anorectum, eye, or oral cavity over a period of 2 to 4 weeks can improve the quality of life in patients with lesions that are painful or functionally disturbing.
最初为治疗经典型卡波西肉瘤（KS）而研发的技术，在患有流行型KS早期阶段的获得性免疫缺陷综合征（AIDS）患者中使用取得了相当大的成功。单剂量放疗或分次给予的较大剂量放疗可使皮肤病变短期消退，且发病率最低。在2至4周的时间内，对足部、生殖器、肛门直肠、眼睛或口腔给予分次剂量放疗，可改善有疼痛或功能障碍性病变患者的生活质量。
