1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 04/01/2012 - "Randomized multicenter controlled trials evaluating efficacy of conservation surgery and definitive radiotherapy, and correctly interpreting functional outcome for each of the treatment procedures examined are necessary to obtain sufficient evidence to influence the decision in the choice of the most effective treatment for early pyriform sinus cancer." 07/01/2005 - "Most institutes participated in nonrandomized trials designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combination chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy in each group study and treated children with these tumors The results are reviewed and areas for future investigation are identified." 06/01/2002 - "Results from a small number of population studies indicate a highly significant improvement in disease-specific survival for radical prostatectomy compared to radiotherapy, and it appears that this difference may become more pronounced as the grade of the cancer increases. " 10/01/2012 - "Most cases of cancer can be cured with surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy if they are detected at an early stage. " 07/01/2012 - "In anaplastic thyroid cancers, although most patients present with unresectable disease and radiotherapy is the mainstay of treatment, the benefits of the addition of chemotherapy to radiation therapy will be discussed. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
2.	Neoplasm Metastasis (Metastasis) 01/01/2012 - "Little is known about what the best treatment is for patients returning with painful bone metastases after their first radiotherapy. " 09/15/2003 - "The risk of death was found to be correlated with the presence of metastases in the liver (P = 0.02) or lung pleura (P = 0.04) at the time of the diagnosis of CM. Sequential combination radiotherapy and vinca alkaloid-based chemotherapy appear to be the most beneficial treatment modality. " 01/01/2003 - "Surgery and whole brain radiotherapy for the treatment of single brain metastasis in patients with stable extracranial disease is at the present time the best treatment option for this particular group. " 02/01/1997 - "Radiotherapy is effective for the management of most uveal metastases, and standard external beam radiotherapy is generally administered during a 3-to 4-week period. " 05/01/1993 - "For a long time, radiotherapy was considered as the best treatment for spinal metastases. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
3.	Carcinoma (Carcinomatosis) 12/01/2006 - "Radiotherapy is the most effective treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). " 11/01/2005 - "To investigate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous incisional needle biopsy (PINB) in the parapharyngeal region under CT guide for highly suspicious nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) or recurrence of NPC after radiotherapy.

" 06/14/2003 - "Given that CO2-laser decortication and radiotherapy are equally effective in the treatment of T1a glottic carcinomas, to determine which of the two is most efficient with respect to treatment costs. " 07/01/2000 - "Nevertheless, the best treatment for T1 and T2 glottic carcinoma, whether an open neck procedure, endoscopy or radiotherapy, with reference to recurrence, survival, and functional results, has long been debated.

4.	Prostatic Neoplasms (Prostate Cancer) 05/01/2011 - "In this study we assessed the feasibility and efficacy of a highly accelerated and hypofractionated scheme of radiotherapy (HypoARC), for the treatment of localized low risk prostate cancer. " 05/01/1998 - "Although our overall results after external beam radiotherapy for early-stage prostate cancer patients are less favorable than the best results published for 125I implantation monotherapy, our results are comparable to those in most other studies with implantation monotherapy. " 01/01/2011 - "The best management of localized and locally advanced prostate cancer remains controversial, but there are clinical evidences that for patients considered of unfavorable outcome that dose escalation radiotherapy has a significantly better outcome. " 07/01/2008 - "Although there is no consensus on which is the best option in prostate cancer treatment, these patients could be successfully treated with radiotherapy. " 06/18/2008 - "To quantify the relative improvement in prostate cancer-specific survival of salvage radiotherapy vs no therapy after biochemical recurrence following prostatectomy, and to identify subgroups for whom salvage treatment is most beneficial.

5.	Breast Neoplasms (Breast Cancer) 10/01/2011 - "The question whether and for whom the gold standard of whole breast radiotherapy (WBRT) may be replaced by accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) is one of the most controversial issue in the adjuvant breast cancer setting. " 10/01/2005 - "Breast-conserving surgery and radiotherapy is firmly established as a good and safe option for most women with early breast cancer. " 09/01/2007 - "The findings of this study provide important information on QOL and their correlates among Nigerian women undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer and are helpful in developing treatment strategies accordingly." 06/01/2009 - "Hypofractionation is a proven safe and effective modality for postoperative whole-breast radiotherapy for early breast cancer patients." 12/15/2003 - "This retrospective analysis aimed to identify whether breast cancer patients receiving radiotherapy alone following a complete clinical remission (cCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy had a worse outcome than those treated with surgery.
