[Morphometry of squamous cell cancer of the lung after radiation therapy combined with hyperglycemia].

The authors analysed morphological changes and provided morphological assessment of the parenchyma, stroma, vessels and necrosis in the squamous cell lung carcinoma tissue of 40 patients without preliminary irradiation, 40 patients after gamma-beam therapy and 49 patients after radiotherapy combined with induced hyperglycemia (IH). The total focal dosage was 20 Gy (5 fractions during a week). In 25 patients IH was followed by irradiation and in 24 patients it followed irradiation.
