Hyperfractionated/accelerated radiotherapy regimens for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer: a systematic review of clinical and cost-effectiveness

Searching MEDLINE (from 1966 to November 2001), EMBASE (from 1980 to November 2001), Cancerlit (from 1966 to November 2001) and the Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2001) were searched. The authors also contacted experts in the field, searched the Internet, and checked the citations of studies and reviews obtained for additional studies. The search terms used were reported in detail. There were no language restrictions. It appears that unpublished literature was eligible, although the authors did not explicitly state this.
