Dr. Silvestri on Radiation Pneumonitis and Lung Complications from Targeted Therapies
Author
Howard (Jack) West, MD

Here's the second half of the presentation by Dr. Gerard Silvestri, expert pulmonologist and critical care specialist at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, on pulmonary complications from lung cancer treatment.  In this part, he briefly covers the side effects of some systemic targeted therapies used as a treatment for lung cancer, then covers the important topic of radiation pneumonitis in some detail.

Here is the podcast in video and audio versions, along with the transcript and figures.
