title: Superficial radiotherapy of warts: results of treating 531 warts.
abstract: The fear of injurious effects has almost completely halted the use of radiotherapy in the cure of warts. Over a period of 24 years, the authors have treated 531 warts with both orthovoltage and superficial radiation equipment without any adverse effects. The selection of superficial or orthovoltage units was not dependent on the size of the lesion and was thought to be completely random.
