Abstract
Since 1966, 125 patients with carcinoma of the uterine cervix were treated with a 6 MV roentgen beam from a linear accelatro. The pelvis was irradiated with 60 Gy followed by 30 to 45 Gy to a small volume using a lateral pendulum. The small-field irradiation was performed using a new beam-directing device consisting of a rod with a central pivot. Favourable results were achieved, despite the fact that most of the patients had advanced carcinoma.
