No external-beam radiation therapy is not painful.
During brachytherapy, the patient will be anaesthetized to block pain sensation while placing the radioactive source inside the body.
Most radiation therapy lasts not more than 5 to 20 minutes. In most cases, treatment is spread over several weeks to allow healthy cells to recover in between treatment.
Radiation therapy is used as curative treatment and in early stages of cancer, the cure rates are upto 90 to 95%. However in advanced stages cure rates are 40 to 70 %, which depends on the type of cancer. It is also helpful in relieving cancer-associated pain and improving patient's quality of life significantly. For example, radiation therapy is extremely effective in the overall management of prostate cancer with a 5-year survival rate of 98%.
Radiation therapy or radiotherapy is the treatment of cancer using high-energy radiation beams.
Radiation oncology is the branch of medicine that deals with the management of cancer and its associated symptoms using radiotherapy.
Cancer is a condition characterised by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells inside the body. These cells, if left to grow inside the body, rapidly destroy the normal healthy cells thereby hindering normal body functioning. Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment, which makes use of a high-energy radiation beam to kill cancer cells by damaging their DNA. When the DNA is damaged, the cancer cells are unable to multiple, thus they die, are broken down and removed from the body. This enables the patient to live a longer healthy life.
The amount and the number of radiotherapy treatments differ from patient to patient depending upon the type of cancer, area to be irradiated, age, etc. As each organ can receive a limited amount of radiation to avoid complete tissue destruction, detailed radiation planning is done by the Radiation Oncologist before therapy.
Food plays an important role in reducing complications related to radiation therapy. Some foods may increase your risk of infections. You are advised to avoid food rich in unpeeled fruits and vegetables, spicy and oily food.
