78 The curability of tumours of differing size by targeted radiotherapy using 131 I or 90 Y T. E. Wheldon, J. A. O'Donoghue, A. Barrette and A. S. Michalowski Radiotherapy and Oncology Volume 21, Issue 2Radiotherapy and Oncology Volume 21, Issue 2, June 1991, Pages 91-99 Abstract: The analysis implies that an advantage might result from the use of a panel of several radionuclides (including short-range emitters) or from combining targeted radiotherapy using long-range-emitters with external beam irradiation or some other modality to which microscopic tumours are preferentially vulnerable.
