Veterinary Radiotherapy

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1970
SUMMARY Spontaneous animal tumors of several cell types were irradiated. A 2-year cure-rate was established for tumors in each of 4 cell types by determining the percentage nonrecurrence at 2 years following radiotherapy. The 2-year cure-rates were as follows: perianal tumors, 69%; fibrosarcomas, 56%; squamous cell carcinomas, 74%; and mast cell tumors,
