摘要
The prognosis and the radiosensitivity of macroscopically infiltrative type of esophageal carcinoma are worse than those of the localized type of esophageal carcinoma treated with irradiation. The aim of this study was to investigate the cause of differences in radiosensitivity and prognosis of esophageal carcinoma according to macroscopic type from the viewpoint of tumor angiogenesis.
