The authors discuss changes in the equipment and technologies of radiotherapy during the past 10-15 years. These changes ensured the improvement of diagnostics and treatment of neoplasms by two other main methods, surgical and medicamental. Modifications in the combined application of radiotherapy and surgery and of radio- and pharmacotherapy are discussed.
