The following are important developments achieved in the past 1-2 years: Preoperative vs postoperative radiotherapy for high-risk soft tissue carcinoma of the extremities. Intensified preoperative chemoradiotherapy. Radiotherapy for synovial sarcoma in children and adolescents. Radiotherapy for osteosarcoma.
