摘要：

All randomized trials show comparable pain relief rates with single or fractionated radiotherapy (RT) in selected patients. Further studies are required to determine the optimal single dose (our analysis suggests 6-8 Gy), its efficacy in preventing fractures/cord compression and defining criteria for recommending fractionated RT for a select few. Besides this, a 'lingua franca' for pain assessment tools is urgently required. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
