Abstract
We investigated the utility of radioimmunotherapy (RIT) in the treatment of experimental cryptococcal infection with high-inoculum and the possibility of RIT treatment selecting for fungal cells with radiation-resistant phenotypes. RIT reduced mortality in high-burden infections, and we found no evidence for the development of radiation-resistant cells.Entities:
