The results obtained in irradiation of 106 patients with metastases of different malignant tumors in the skeleton are reported. Radiotherapy was carried out on a distance gamma-apparatus by two fractions, with a single dose of 650 or 850 rad. As a result of the therapy, pains disappeared in 32 patients, and in 60 patients these were diminished considerably. A prompt therapeutic effect of the method, its simplicity and effectiveness (an opportunity to raise the capacity of the apparatus and clinic where a patient stays) made it possible to recommend it for practical purposes of palliative irradiation.
报告了对106例骨骼有不同恶性肿瘤转移患者进行照射的结果。使用远距离伽马设备进行放射治疗，分两次照射，单次剂量为650或850拉德。治疗后，32例患者疼痛消失，60例患者疼痛明显减轻。该方法迅速的治疗效果、简单性和有效性（有机会提高患者所在设备和诊所的能力）使得推荐其用于姑息性照射的实际目的成为可能。
