Radiation Oncology

Radiation Oncology encompasses all aspects of research that impacts on the treatment of cancer using radiation. Radiation can be given as a curative modality, either alone or in combination with surgery and/or chemotherapy. It may also be used palliative, to relieve symptoms in patients with incurable cancers. The Radiotherapy/radiation therapy is broadly segmented into Teleradiotherapy, Brachy-radiotherapy and Metabolic Radiotherapy. Nuclear medicine is a branch of medicine that uses radiation to provide information about the functioning of a person's specific organs or to treat disease. Medical imaging is the technique and process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues.

TYPES OF RADIATION THERAPY

  • 3D conformal radiation therapy
  • Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
  • Volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT)
  • Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT)
  • Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS)
  • Brachytherapy
  • Superficial x-ray radiation therapy (SXRT)
  • Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT)
