Description

Renée Duvenage and Jacques Hill report in 2026 on a stubborn face rash treated with a focused beam of radiation. The rash forms thick red-brown plaques on sun-lit skin and stems from a dense knot of swelling cells under a clear skin band. Creams, drugs, lasers, and surgery most often fail to hold it back, and it tends to return.

Their patient was a 65-year-old woman with a large cheek plaque that had grown past steroid shots. She turned down surgery, so the team planned beam care with a scan map and fine dose sums. They call it the first such case run with this modern planning. The report weighs what the beam achieved and where it fell short, as a guide for like hard cases.
