FAQ

How does radiation therapy work?

Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to destroy or damage cancer cells. It works by targeting the DNA inside these cells, preventing them from multiplying.

Will I experience any sensations after my treatment?

You may experience fatigue or skin irritation near the treated area. These are common and temporary effects that vary depending on the treatment site and your body’s response.

Why do side effects occur with radiation therapy?

Side effects occur because radiation can also affect normal cells around the treatment area, although modern techniques aim to minimize this impact.

Will radiation therapy make me radioactive?

External radiation therapy does not make you radioactive. The radiation is targeted and does not linger in your body after treatment sessions.

How long do side effects typically last?

Side effects can vary in duration and intensity but often improve within a few weeks after completing treatment. Your medical team will monitor and manage any discomfort to ensure your comfort and well-being throughout the process.

What is the difference between chemotherapy and radiation therapy?

Chemotherapy involves using drugs to kill cancer cells throughout the body, while radiation therapy targets specific areas with high-energy rays.
