Abstract
Few topics are more emotive than the use of radiotherapy for nonlethal diseases. Memories of Hiroshima and of patients with ankylosing spondylitis dying of leukaemia following irradiation haunt the physician. Nevertheless, there are exciting developments in our understanding of total lymphoid irradiation - a modality that results in striking immunosuppression. Should total lymphoid irradiation be used for rheumatoid disease?
摘要
很少有话题比将放射疗法用于非致命性疾病更具争议性。广岛的记忆以及强直性脊柱炎患者在接受放射治疗后死于白血病的案例一直萦绕在医生心头。然而，我们对全身淋巴照射的理解有了令人兴奋的进展——这种治疗方式会导致显著的免疫抑制。全身淋巴照射是否应用于类风湿性疾病呢？
