Does radiation oncology cause pain?
Radiation does not sting, burn, or cause pain when it enters the body.
What types of cancer can be treated with radiation?
The most often treated malignancies are those of the head and neck, breast, cervix, prostate, and eye using brachytherapy or radiation therapy.
Is radiation therapy worse than chemotherapy?
With radiation therapy, potent dosages of radiation beams are directed directly at the tumor. The radiation beams cause the tumor to shrink or die by altering the Genetic structure of the tumor. As it only affects one part of the body, this cancer treatment is less harmful than chemotherapy.
What type of clothes should you wear while receiving radiation?
Put comfortable, loose-fitting cotton garments over the treated region. Keep starched or stiff garments away from the area being treated.
Is it safe to interact with people who are receiving radiation therapy?
Individuals exposed to external beam radiation are not radioactive and do not have radiation in their bodies. Individuals who receive systemic and internal radiation may briefly emit radioactivity.
