Clinical Trial
Radiotherapy and hyperbaric oxygen. Report of a Medical Research Council Working Party.
The M. R. C. ⋯ In carcinoma of the bladder hyperbaric oxygen has shown no benefit. Centres already equipped with hyperbaric chambers should continue to use them for those types of tumour shown to benefit. Since hyperbaric oxygen treatment makes great demands on medical and other staff, extension of its use must await comparison with other methods for improving radiotherapy which are now being evaluated.
