Abstract
We were concerned to read about the poor results for breast cancer radiotherapy obtained at the M.D. Anderson Hospital for a three-fraction-per-week dose schedule Montague, 1968). This has not been the experience of other users of schedules involving three fractions per week in general; and there is an obvious explanation which this letter presents.Keywords
