Radiation Therapy
How Does Radiation Therapy Work?
Radiation therapy is the use of various forms of radiation to safely and effectively treat cancer and other diseases. Radiation therapy is given in fractions or days, typically Monday thru Friday for several weeks depending on each patient’s unique prescription. Radiation therapy damages cells by destroying the genetic material that controls how cells grow and divide. Once this happens, the cancer cells are not able to grow and spread. When these damaged cancer cells die, the body naturally removes them. Normal cells are also affected by radiation, but they are able to repair themselves in a way that cancer cells cannot.
