FAQ's

Radiation therapy or radiotherapy uses different forms of radiation (typically X rays or gamma rays) to effectively and safely treat cancer. Radiation oncologists use radiation to cure cancer, for controlling the growth of the cancer cells or sometimes to relieve symptoms like pain.

In external beam radiation therapy, the radiation oncologist uses a machine to direct high-energy X-rays to treat cancer. In Internal radiation therapy, tubes or channels are placed in the body to allow the radioactive source to go and treat the disease from inside. 

Stereotactic Radiotherapy allows the radiation oncologist to precisely channel the radiation beams to destroy the tumours. Such a precision might spare more part of healthy tissue from getting damaged. Stereotactic radiotherapy is usually given in a single dose/single session.

Radiation therapy uses X-rays or protons to kill the cancer cells and prevent them from multiplying. Side effects typically depend on the body site that is being treated. The common ones include - hair loss, skin irritation, dry mouth, sore throat, nausea, bladder infection, diarrhoea and frequent urination. 

A normal healthy diet is encouraged during radiation therapy. Added sugars, solid fats and alcohol consumption are best avoided.
