- W3138723855 abstract "Radiotherapy (or radiation therapy) uses ionizing radiation to selectively kill cancer cells, especially for solid tumours. Like surgery, it is meant to be a ‘local’ treatment, although its beneficial systemic effects are being discovered. It is most commonly used in addition to surgery (adjuvant, e.g. breast), but its role in the neoadjuvant setting in combination with chemotherapy for some cancers (e.g. rectum) is also established. In early stages of cancer, it can be the definitive treatment, avoiding surgery and enabling organ preservation (e.g. larynx), while in late stages, it can provide excellent palliation (e.g. bone metastasis). Radiotherapy can be delivered at various energy levels (kiloVolts, megaVolts), with various subatomic particles (e.g. electrons, protons, and high-energy electromagnetic radiation). The traditional bulky equipment (e.g. linear accelerator) needs to be housed in an underground bunker and uses complex imaging to improve precision and avoid radiation to normal tissues. Fractionated regimens spanning several days reduce individual doses. Modern techniques using mobile devices (e.g. TARGIT-IORT) can deliver radiotherapy during surgery with the highest precision and immediacy." @default.
