A case of momentary exposure of the right hand to irradiation from a microwave oven is described. Transient paresthesias and a cold, pale hand resulted but resolved spontaneously in 60 minutes without treatment. Even momentary exposure can result in severe coagulation necrosis, with eventual loss of the exposed extremity.

Potentiation of radiation injury by interferon*
American Journal of Clinical Oncology, 1982Interferon (IFN) is being tested clinically in the treatment of a wide range of human malignancies. Patients undergoing cancer treatment may require radiotherapy in conjunction with IFN administration. This study examined the effect of purified preparations of IFN on the radiation response of mouse Swiss 3T3 cells in culture. Cells were exposed to 10 U/

Modulation of Radiation Injury
Science, 2004Scientists are just beginning to understand the complicated response to radiation exposure that organisms exhibit. In their Perspective, [ Coleman et al .][1] report on a recent meeting that reviewed the model systems available to study these issues and recent progress in their application to radiation injury.

Anticoagulation for radiation injury [PDF]
Neurology, 1995 To the Editor: Glantz et al recently published an important article [1] on the effect of heparin and warfarin on radiationinduced nervous system injury in 11 patients, one of whom had myelopathy. We have encountered two cases of delayed radiation myelopathy, one of which has been treated with oral anticoagulants.

Radiation injury of the rectum
Radiotherapy and Oncology, 2001Any clinician involved in the treatment of pelvic malignancies with radiation is aware of the potential for rectal injury. Although severe effects have been well described for many years, it is only more recently that lesser degrees of rectal injury have been considered important.

Pathology of Radiation Injury [PDF]
, 1989 Irradiation is widely used in the treatment of some malignant tumours. It has become the therapy of choice in certain circumstances where surgery and/or chemotherapy have failed to produce good results. With increasing use, we have become more aware of the complications and potential hazards of radiotherapy.

Cranial irradiation has an important role in the treatment of brain tumors either with curative intent or for palliation. Cranial irradiation has a unique application in prevention of distant metastasis to brain parenchyma, and prophylactic cranial irradiation may be carried out in selected patients at high risk of neoplastic cranial involvement.

Clinical assessment of patients with radiation damage to the intestinal or genitourinary tract can be difficult. The symptoms may be similar to those of recurrent tumour. Radiology can be useful to document the presence and extent of any abnormality and to attempt to distinguish between radiation change and tumour.
