Abstract
Apoptosis is known as an active process of cell death forced by radio- and chemotherapy. Therefore, established concepts (terms, therapy sch emes) will reflect a picture different from that usually seen, when ex amined under the apoptotic point of view. Furthermore, the development of new concepts for innovative diagnosis, prognosis and therapy could be accomplished. This is an attempt to reveal actual features of both aspects.
