Abstract

Radiation morbidity is as important as tumour control when determining the value of radiotherapy, but there is no internationally agreed system for the recording of morbidity. A scheme based upon the scoring of the elements which make up morbidity has been endorsed by a 2-day Workshop sponsored by the Medical Research Council and a system is now available for trial.
