RIT In The News - AGAIN!
RIT is getting lots of attention these days! First there was the article in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute on April 4. (See the entry on on April 12 to read it in its entirity). Then there was April's Lymphoma Research Foundation's Newsletter which I wrote about in my last entry. You can now view the article in its entirity at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nhl-info/files/LRF%20RIT%20Story%20April%202007.pdf.
And this past Monday, the Associated Press published a story about RIT. You can view it at

All three of these articles have a common theme: that RIT is underutilized. I'll discuss more about the reasons in my next entry. For now, I hope that you will take the time to read these articles. They could be very helpful in making treatment decisions.
