Patients were divided into 3 groups: patients of group 1 were treated on apparatus for electron linear accelerator «Mevatron KD2» (n=32), group 2 — on the LEA «Clinac 2100» (n=41) and group 3 — on devices «Rokus AM» and «Teratron» (n=48). All patients performed pre-beam topometric preparation but using different equipment. As a result, patients in groups 1 and 3 were recorded in the treatment of radiation reactions II–III degree, which led to the forced break in treatment.
