摘要
Bone mineral densities (BMDs) of L2 to L5 were measured on 40 cervical cancer patients with radiotherapy and 40 matched controls. We found no significant difference in the BMDs between the two groups and no significant change in BMDs 1-7 years after the therapy in the patient group. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
