What is Radiation Oncology

Radiation Oncology is also known as radiotherapy. It is an important line of cancer treatment. In radiotherapy, doctors use a powerful energy beam to kill cancer cells. This radiation beam’s power can be controlled. Radiation therapy is a focused and minimally invasive method of cancer treatment.

Various types of machines and tools are used for radiotherapy. Some of these are:-

Cyber Knife
Tomotherapy H
True Beam
Versa HD
Agility Synergy
Brachytherapy
Hyperthermia

Following are the advantages of radiotherapy:-

A wide range of cancer can be treated by radiation therapy.
There is no cut or incision. So there is no blood loss. There is no lengthy recovery period that usually follows conventional surgery.
Treatment-related complications are lesser in number
The radiation beam can be focused on a particular area. So the damage to surrounding areas is reduced.
Radiation therapy does not require hospital admission.
Sometimes radiation therapy is combined with surgery and chemotherapy.
Cancer can be managed with a lesser number of radiotherapy sessions.
