Radiation Therapy for Bone Cancer
Radiation therapy is one of the three traditional primary forms of bone cancer treatment used by the experts at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) to treat the disease and/or provide relief from symptoms.
Radiation therapy may be used to treat bone cancer almost anywhere within the body. It may be used alone, or in combination with surgery and/or chemotherapy. Innovative new radiation therapy techniques have evolved, and are still evolving, which enable delivery of higher radiation doses to cancer cells while limiting exposure to nearby normal bone tissue.
Radiation oncologists at CTCA employ advanced radiation techniques, including External Beam Radiation and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), to strengthen your fight against bone cancer.
