Studies happen after a certain procedure has been coined for treatment of a certain issue and already have been applied to significant number of patients. In-vitro and animal trails are not very useful and double blind peer reviews neither. The regulations that are in place for FDA approval of drugs are (largely?) not applicable to these kind of procedures.

I don't think that's right. I don't think a doctor can just try a new radiation protocol because he feels like it. At least not in any reputable hospital. At a minimum, the hospital's Institutional Review Board will have to approve it.
