How has radiation therapy evolved?

Radiation therapy has seen significant advancements that enhance its precision and effectiveness. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and proton therapy allow for more accurate targeting of tumors, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Another breakthrough is stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), which delivers high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumors, often in fewer treatment sessions. These advancements have improved treatment outcomes and reduced side effects for many cancer patients.
