Radiation therapy

The majority of cancer patients will receive radiotherapy or radiation therapy for cancer at some point throughout their treatment. Radiation therapy, often known as radiotherapy, focuses on administering the dose as precisely as possible while sparing the unaffected normal tissues. This helps to reduce the negative effects on the cancer patient while also avoiding damage to normal cells. Radiotherapy imaging examinations aid in determining the exact shape and location of the tumour as well as defining its borders. The radiology professional instructs the patient based on the sort of exam being done on the patient. In the treatment planning for a cancer patient having radiotherapy on an individual basis, a multidisciplinary team of professionals is involved.
