A technique for the preparation of accurate plastic molds of the nasopharym has been described. These molds are used as radiation source carriers in the supplementary irradiation of certain neoplasms of the nasopharynx. No surgical resection of the palate or nasal septum is required to obtain accurate positioning of the mold and radiation sources. (auth)
