Local control of metastatic sites with radiation therapy in metastatic Ewing sarcoma and rhabdomyosarcomaArthur K Liu
Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Colorado Denver, Aurora, Colorado, USA
Pediatr Blood Cancer 57:169-71. 2011..In 13 children, at a median follow-up of 18 months, a single local failure was seen. Toxicity was minimal. Our data suggest that radiation therapy is effective and tolerable in children with metastatic EWS and RMS...
Conventional MRI at presentation does not predict clinical response to radiation therapy in children with diffuse pontine gliomaArthur K Liu
