The use of #Radiotherapy (RT) for skin cancer by #dermatologists has
decreased since the latter half of last century for many reasons. Driven
by clinical need, radiation oncologists, radiation biologists and
#physicists, have progressed RT in many ways over the course of the last
fifty years. The creation of multidisciplinary meetings for clinicians
involved in skin cancer has put the #specialisties of dermatology and
radiation oncology in touch. With better modalities and techniques, is
there a new role for RT in skin cancer?. A particular scenario is the
treatment of Extensive Skin Field #Cancerisation (ESFC), where in situ
disease can cause significant #symptoms and can lead to invasive disease.
Current dermatologic and traditional radiation treatments have been
disappointing, especially for large convex surfaces of sun-exposed areas
such as scalps.
