Howard,

RADIATION VERSUS CANCER

Most people think of radiation as a cause of cancer: as indeed it is in high 

dosage. In very high, concentrated dosage, it is also a palliative (or 

sometimes curative) measure through destruction of tumor cells.



Howard,



Does anyone know the mechanism for this?  Is it because the immune system up 

regulates tha amount of inflamatory cytokines?
