title: [Scintigraphy of the liver with 131-I-bengal rose and determination of ferritin in the blood during combined radiotherapy of cancer of the cervix].
abstract: Altogether 117 patients with cervical cancer on combined radiation therapy were examined. They were examined before the start of radiation therapy, after a focal dose of 35-40 Gy, immediately after the termination of irradiation and in 3-12 mos. after treatment. Using a method of dynamic computerized scintigraphy with 131I-Bengal rose absorptive-excretory function of the liver was studied; the level of ferritin was determined too. Combined radiation therapy was shown to cause hepatic disorders that manifest themselves in the suppression of absorptive-excretory function of the liver and a decreased level of ferritin. The most noticeable changes were recorded in the patients examined immediately after the termination of irradiation. Results of both methods show good correlation.
