Radiotherapy treatment of keloid scars with a kilovoltage X-ray parallel pair.

David J Eaton1, Elizabeth Barber, Leila Ferguson, G Mark Simpson, Christopher H Collis.   

Abstract

An established treatment for keloids is surgery and radiotherapy, using a single applied field. However, earlobe keloids lend themselves to a parallel opposed pair approach. Delivery with a superficial X-ray unit is practicable and improves homogeneity within the treatment volume. It has been implemented in this centre since 2007.
