FAQ About Dr. Priyanka Singh

FAQ

Radiation therapy or radiotherapy is cancer treatment method which uses high energy X rays or other particles to kill the cancer cells .

As we know each cell has a nucleus which contains the DNA responsible for cell division and growth. Contrary to what is commonly believed, radiation doesn &apos t kill or burn the tumour cells. It actually damages the DNA of the cancer cells irreparably so that they do not multiple and grow further.

No. Radiation therapy is a totally painless treatment. It uses high energy X rays which are the same rays used in x ray of bones or CT scans. Pain can occur due to disease itself or some side effects , but radiation itself is painless.

Radiation is an integral part of cancer treatment. It has a role in almost all cancers. It can be used alone as in most head and neck cancers and brain tumours with or without chemotherapy, after surgery as additional treatment as in breast cancer or as a palliative treatment to treat the symptom like bone soon, bleeding or brain metastasis in last stage of cancer.

Radiation therapy delivery techniques have shown considerable advances in the last few years. The aim is to treat the disease precisely and accurately with minimum damage to surrounding areas. Some of these techniques are Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), Image guided radiotherapy ( IGRT), Volumetric arc therapy ( VMAT), Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) , Stereotactic body Radiotherapy (SBRT ), Deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH). You should always discuss with your doctor about the techniques available and best suited for your disease.
