Comparative Outcomes of Single- and Split-Fraction Low-Dose Radiation in Mycosis Fungoides.
Single-dose radiation therapy for cutaneous lymphoma offers comparable results with excellent tolerability and logistical advantages, especially for remote areas.
This retrospective observational study examined Comparative Outcomes of Single- and Split-Fraction Low-Dose Radiation in Mycosis Fungoides. The abstract reports that Single-fraction 8 Gy was associated with similar short-term outcomes and excellent tolerability, supporting its use as an effective, logistically advantageous option, particularly in rural practice.
