Cobalt 60 versus 15 MeV photons during total body irradiation: doses in the critical organs and complexicity of the procedure.

abstract：BACKGROUND:As newer immunosuppressive regimens have steadily reduced in the incidence of acute rejection and have extended the life expectancy of allograft recipients, posttransplant de novo malignancies have become an important cause of death in cadaveric donor transplantation. Also, according with the recent accumula...
