The authors present, as a criterion of side-effect damage, an evaluation scheme based on the qualitative grading of the acute, intermediate and late effects of the therapeutic irradiation of chest, head and neck cancers. The choice of individual qualitative clinical criteria is complex and arbitrary, although the parameters used are currently found in the literature on radiotherapy. Nevertheless the classifications they have proposed, applied clinically in cases of head and neck cancers, have proved useful in assessing the risk factors of acute and late radiation effects according to the doses delivered. The gradings here described constitute a useful tool for the preliminary assessment of radiation damage and will facilitate the comparative analysis of different case series.
作者提出了一种基于胸部、头部和颈部癌症治疗性放疗的急性、中期和晚期效应定性分级的评估方案,作为副作用损害的标准。尽管目前在放射治疗文献中可以找到所使用的参数,但个体定性临床标准的选择既复杂又具有随意性。然而,他们提出的分类方法在头颈部癌症病例的临床应用中,已被证明有助于根据所给予的剂量评估急性和晚期放射效应的风险因素。这里描述的分级构成了一个用于初步评估辐射损伤的有用工具,并将有助于对不同病例系列进行比较分析。
