Core Tip |
Radiation pneumonitis is an uncommon but serious complication from radiation therapy which can on rare occasions be fatal. This report not only documents the details of such a case but also includes pathologic confirmation and computed tomography images. Although the radiation field was limited to the right lung and mediastinum, the process was also noted to be bilateral and diffuse. |
