Abstract
Combined treatment for colorectal cancer involving preoperative hypooxyradiotherapy was used to boost targeted irradiation of tumor cells. End results were significantly improved due to the decrease in the number of distant metastases even in cases of poor prognosis because of lymph node involvement.
