The question of the development of a rational method for radiotherapy of malignant tumors is still topical. In the practice of treating malignant neoplasms with radium, there is a lack of reliable criteria for judging the effectiveness of a given dosage of radiant energy and constructing a treatment course as a whole, which could give confidence in advance in the unconditional effectiveness of treatment in each specific case. Usually, the matter is limited to the use of installations arising from the concept of the general biological effect of radio beams on normal and cancer cells. There are works in which data are presented on the features of the influence of radio beams on various tissues at certain stages of their embryonic development (V. S. Gruzdev, T. P. Kolchina, O. E. Nudolskaya, etc.).
