✦ Synopsis

A prospective study was initiated to evaluate computed tomography as a method for monitoring therapeutically induced changes in brain tumors. Early postoperative scans may be misleading in the evaluation of residual tumor because of trauma to the blood-brain barrier during operation. The size of the dominant mass (17/25), enhancement (11/25), edema (11/25), and ventricular distortion (14/25) were decreased in many patients after radiation therapy. Occasional tumors increased in size during radiation therapy (3/25). Enlargement of the lateral ventricles developed in 9 of 25 patients. Computed tomography offers definite advantages over nuclide brain scans, angiography and other diagnostic studies for evaluating therapeutically induced changes in brain tumors.

Nucleoid halo diameters were measured to assay changes in DNA supercoiling in human brain tumor cell line SF-126 after irradiation under aerobic or hypoxic conditions. In unirradiated aerobic cells, a typical propidium iodide titration curve showed that with increasing concentrations of propidium io
