    There are four types of external-beam radiation therapy: Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), Proton beam therapy, and Stereotactic radiation therapy. 3D-CRT has special computers creating detailed 3D pictures of the cancer allowing the treatment team to target the beam more accurately. With this method, they are able to use higher doses of radiation while having reduced risk of healthy tissue damage. IMRT uses a Varian Clinac iX-S…

    Firstly, its advantages include being safe and painless. Unlike X-ray, MRI scanners do not use ionizing radiation; instead they use magnetic fields and radio waves which are harmless and can be absorbed by the body without causing mutations because radio waves have a low frequency and thus a low energy that doesn’t cause harm. Secondly, the pictures that…
