Disease relevance of Radiodermatitis

GM-CSF impregnated gauze can be effective in preventing and healing radiation-induced dermatitis and in reducing the interruption intervals of radiotherapy for vulvar carcinomas [1].

High impact information on Radiodermatitis

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) impregnated gauze in preventing or healing radiation-induced dermatitis [1].
Platelet-activating factor antagonist WEB 2086 inhibits ultraviolet-B radiation-induced dermatitis in the human skin [2].
The severity of radiodermatitis in the rats in the RT + 0.01 GH and RT + 0.02 GH groups was significantly lower than that in the RT group; radiodermatitis developed earlier in the RT group than in the other groups [3].
Acute radiodermatitis from occupational exposure to iridium 192 [4].
