Interview Podcast with Dr. Mehta on Novel Techniques in Radiation for Lung Cancer


In this audio interview with Dr. Vivek Mehta, Radiation Oncologist and Director of the Center for Advanced Targeted Radiotherapy at Swedish Cancer Institute, Dr. Mehta explains current and emerging new radiation techniques, as well as the current state of radiation therapy to treat patients with “medically unresectable” early stage NSCLC, or patients who decline the option of surgery for resectable disease.  He also covers side effect challenges with radiation and particularly when chest radiation is combined with chemotherapy.  In addition to the audio portion, there are a few figures synchronized with the discussion in the video version, or you can just download the figures as a separate pdf file.  The transcript is also provided below.
