Minimizing Side Effects and Enhancing Quality of Life with RadiotherapyRadiotherapy techniques have evolved to minimize treatment-related side effects and enhance the quality of life for cancer patients. The use of advanced radiation delivery methods, such as IMRT and IGRT, enables a more conformal dose distribution, sparing surrounding healthy tissues from unnecessary radiation exposure. This reduction in collateral damage results in fewer acute and long-term...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 2K Views 0 previzualizare

Radiotherapy's Past, Present, and Promising FutureRadiotherapy's journey as a medical treatment has been one of remarkable progress, propelling it from its humble beginnings to a prominent position in modern oncology. The history of radiotherapy dates back to the late 19th century when Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered X-rays in 1895, marking the birth of radiation-based medicine. Initially used for diagnostic purposes, the therapeutic...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 2K Views 0 previzualizare

Role of Particle therapy in RadiotherapyParticle therapy encompasses several advanced radiotherapy techniques, including proton therapy (mentioned earlier) and carbon ion therapy. Carbon ion therapy utilizes carbon ions instead of protons or X-rays to treat tumors. Carbon ions have higher biological effectiveness, which means they can cause more damage to cancer cells. Radiotherapy approach is particularly effective against...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 2K Views 0 previzualizare

Various Advancements of RadiotherapyOver the years, significant advancements have enhanced the precision and efficacy of Radiotherapy. One such advancement is intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), which utilizes computer algorithms to shape the radiation beams to conform more closely to the tumor, sparing healthy tissues. This technique allows for higher doses of radiation to be delivered to the tumor while minimizing...0 Commentarii 0 Distribuiri 2K Views 0 previzualizare
