Radiotherapy

What is Radiotherapy?

If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, your doctor may suggest you get radiation therapy. It’s a common treatment that shrinks tumors and kills cancer cells — and might be the only one you need to tackle your disease.

How Does It Work?

Cells in your body are always dividing and making new copies. When you have cancer, though, some cells start to divide way too fast.

That’s where radiation therapy can help. It uses high-energy particles to make tiny breaks in the DNA of cancer cells to destroy or damage them, so they can no longer make new copies.

What's the Goal of Radiation Therapy?

The aim is to treat your cancer by slowing or stopping tumor growth. Your doctor may sometimes suggest you get radiation therapy to shrink a tumor before you get surgery. Or they may recommend it after surgery to keep a tumor from coming back.

If cancer cells have spread to other parts of your body, radiation therapy can kill them before they grow into new tumors.

If you have a cancer that can’t be cured, your doctor may still suggest you use “palliative” radiation therapy. The goal is to shrink tumors and ease symptoms of your disease.
