external beam radiation therapy

What Are the Different Types of EBRT?

There are several types of EBRT, each tailored to specific cancer types and locations:
- 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT): Uses 3D imaging to target the tumor precisely.
- Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): Modulates the intensity of the beams for more precise targeting.
- Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): Delivers high doses of radiation over fewer sessions.
- Proton Beam Therapy: Uses protons instead of X-rays for a more focused treatment.
