Medical News and Health News Blog » Newer Radiation Treatment Easier For Some Throat Cancer Patients
This link will take you to an article that deals with a newer form of radiation therapy (IMRT vs CRT, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy vs. Conventional Radiation Therapy) that is easier on the patient. I'm going to get in touch with Dr. Jha at the Cross Cancer Institute and find out if this is what they're planning for me... some of the things that the techs have said during the prep work sorta makes me think we're headed in this direction. Remember that the one woman who did the orientation with us (was it Susan?) mentioned that it looked like I was slotted to use the newer tomography machine, rather than the usual machine that she operated. Every little bit will help, eh?
