The rapid advances in radiation oncology, radiation biology, and radiation therapy physics have led to an accumulation of information on the interactions of radiation with other therapeutic modalities, such as the wide array of chemotherapeutic agents being employed in combination with radiation therapy, as well as the multiple biologic response modifiers that are being used in combination with radiation therapy. It is now recognized that they have a significant impact on normal tissue toxicities.
