Last reviewed for CCPS 20 August 2008.
Preliminary questions [8015]
8575 there is some evidence that a course of therapeutic radiation may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.
5031 the veteran has received a course of therapeutic radiation at some time.
22761 the veteran has received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration at some time.
the veteran received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration for treatment of an illness or injury which is identifiable.8023 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapeutic radiation and VEA service for the clinical onset of soft tissue sarcoma.
8025 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapeutic radiation and eligible service for the clinical onset of soft tissue sarcoma.
or
8024 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapeutic radiation and operational service for the clinical onset of soft tissue sarcoma.
Clinical onset and operational service [8024]
30662 — the veteran satisfies the predate requirements necessary to establish a possible causal relationship between receiving a course of therapeutic radiation and the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
for the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration at least two years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.or
the condition under consideration is an angiosarcoma. for the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration at least one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.5326 — the identified illness or injury for which the course of therapeutic radiation was received is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [8025]
30661 — the veteran satisfies the predate requirements necessary to establish a probable causal relationship between receiving a course of therapeutic radiation and the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
for the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration at least three years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.or
the condition under consideration is an angiosarcoma. for the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a course of therapeutic radiation to the region affected by the condition under consideration at least two years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.5327 — the identified illness or injury for which the course of therapeutic radiation was received is causally related to eligible service.
