Radiothérapie

“Radiotherapy, or radiation therapy, is a key treatment modality in oncology, used to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. It employs high-energy radiation, such as X-rays, gamma rays, or electron beams, to damage the DNA of cancer cells, inhibiting their ability to grow and reproduce. Radiotherapy can be administered externally or internally, and its precise, targeted approach helps preserve the health of nearby healthy tissue. It’s often used in conjunction with other treatments such as surgery and chemotherapy to optimize patient outcomes.”
