Abstract
The efficacy of radiotherapy in the management of pain caused by pancreatic carcinoma was assessed. Radiotherapy was infrequently employed to alleviate pain. However, when employed, radiotherapy almost uniformly alleviated pain at low dose levels that were well tolerated. The presence of liver metastasis did not interdict a favorable response.Keywords
