What Drives Radiation Sensitivity in Lymphoma?
The old radiobiology view of
RT sensitivity in lymphoma
Lymphoma = Apoptosis = Radiosensitive
RT sensitivity in lymphoma,
in the molecular age…
Lymphoma gene expression profiles may predict
differences in radiosensitivity
Figure from:
Radiobiology for the Radiologist

Wide spectrum of response to RT in lymphoma (4-40 Gy):
Dramatic variations in radiosensitivity can be explained by
molecular differences in the tumor
