Follow-up of 20 patients with incurable carcinoma of the pancreas is described, who were treated with palliative chemo- or radiotherapy. It was concluded that the course of the disease can be adequately followed by sonography and CT. Control of palliative therapy can be achieved by non-invasive means with little stress to the patient. Whether the attempt to do so is justifiable depends on the success of modern forms of treatment.
本文描述了20例无法治愈的胰腺癌患者接受姑息性化疗或放疗后的随访情况。结果表明,通过超声检查和CT能够充分追踪疾病进程。姑息治疗的效果可通过非侵入性手段实现,且对患者造成的压力较小。这样做是否合理取决于现代治疗方式的成效。
