Radiation therapy is a medical treatment that uses ionizing radiation to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors.
Radiation therapy works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, which prevents them from growing and dividing. This is achieved by delivering high-energy radiation to the affected area.
The side effects of radiation therapy can vary depending on the area being treated, but the most common ones are: fatigue, skin irritation, temporary hair loss, and digestive problems.
The number of radiation therapy sessions required depends on the type and stage of the cancer, as well as each patient’s individual response. Typically, several sessions are administered over the course of several weeks.
Radiation therapy is not painful, but some patients may experience discomfort or a sensation of heat during the procedure. The medical team works to minimize any discomfort and provide the necessary support throughout the treatment.
