title: Whole cutaneous irradiation in mycosis fungoides with 55KV x-rays. Technical study.
abstract: The authors describe a technique for a whole cutaneous superficial irradiation of mycosis fungoides by means of a fixed 55 KV X-Rays generator and a moving couche. Results of the dosimetric study are compared with thoses obtained with Lithium fluoride. Since 1964, twenty five patients have been treated. The results appear to be equivalent to those obtained with electrons. The technical problems of each methods are discussed.
