What is Radiation Therapy?
Radiation therapy is a localized cancer treatment that uses high-energy X-rays or proton beams to kill or damage cancer cells. It may be used:
-
As a curative treatment (to eliminate cancer)
-
Before or after surgery (to shrink tumors or prevent recurrence)
-
Alongside chemotherapy (for enhanced results)
-
To relieve symptoms in advanced or metastatic cancers (palliative radiation)
At Paras, all treatment plans are carefully developed through CT-based simulation and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) for precise targeting.
