Advantages And Disadvantages Of Tomotherapy

is done for this type of tumor is to treat the symptoms and palliative care of the

The well being of the patient will be on the factors of the location of the tumor and where the sarcoma has spreads.

Long times ago, even during the 19th century, scientist all over the world had started to find the cure for cancer, one of the most feared disease you can ever imagine, simply because you don’t know what the cause and how to turn it off. Cancer started

From surgery to radium exposure to such extremes as radiation therapy, as doctors’ knowledge of the varying types of cancer, and the expansion of medical research regarding cancer has changed, so has the preferred method of treatment. Doctors and researchers dedicated to studying cancer have led to a greater understanding of cancer development; consequently the development of treatments and cures that are more effective, less harmful, have fewer side effects, and in some cases serve to prevent the spread of cancer.

Radiation therapy is the ionization of atoms in tissues resulting in formation of highly reactive radicals in a well-defined, restricted volume (1). In other words, ionizing radiations are used to eradicate tumors and at the same time preserve structure and function of normal tissue. A limitation is prevented from being a problem. If bone marrow or neuronal cells are destroyed or injured, they do not regenerate. However, with radiation therapy, these cells are often saved from injury or destruction, unless the tumor is infecting bone marrow or neuronal cells. Today, radiation therapy is the most popular type of cancer therapy in use. It is used to treat one-half to two-thirds of all cancers, which translates to more than ten percent of the population

“...delay going to a doctor...terrified about the pain and financial ruin cancer can cause as well as poor prospects for a cure”. (Glassner 46). Another motive in which society is mistaken is in the fact of not getting check-ups from a doctor due to the fear of money. For example, one may consider it a waste of money for getting a check up, although they are perfectly fine. But the fear of Cancer is resolved but it further leads to the fear of

Cancer. We all know someone who has suffered from it or has passed away because of it. Cancer now affects one in every three people, and is the second highest cause of death in the United States. For decades, the medical community has been on the hunt for a cure for cancer, and have been subjected to intense ridicule from the public because of a lack of progression toward a possible cure. In recent years, many scientists, doctors, researchers, and the general public have come to believe that the cure for cancer is being suppressed because of this lack of progress. Those who say it is suppressed claim that the drugs used to treat cancer actually cause cancer, making a patient sicker and sicker. As a result, the patients are forced to spend

the location of the tumor at any given instance during the treatment cycle was based on

Malignant tumors are harmful to the body and need immediate action. They have an absence of a border and metastasize by growing in different parts of the body once they have traveled throughout the vascular system.

Each day, hundreds of people find themselves face to face with the word “cancer.” There is an estimate of 4600 new cancer diagnosis each day. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the united states, and is a major health concern worldwide. However, over the past 3 decades the survival rate for all cancers has climbed over 20%.

When administered to a patient, the treatment was well tolerated and had modest effects in stopping the tumor. Consequently, the results are inconclusive that the treatment was successful and further research and testing must be conducted to ensure the safety of the procedure

First, the chemotherapy is given to patients in different ways, either intravenous or intramuscular or subcutaneous. For example; if a patient taking through the intravenous therapy is injected into a vein leading to the place of the injured. In this case, it will work accurately damaged part of it and after consecutive periods of treatment in the same way it will be the elimination of cancer. Also, the scientists found a new treatment called

Cancer is a word that no one wants to hear or think about, however there are many people

Cancer can’t be cured, but it may be controlled for a time by chemotherapy. Its goal is to stop or slow down the growth of a tumor or shrink it at least partially or to decrease any pain, bleeding, abstractions

Somehow not only drugs but other option to treats tumour for targeted therapy oncologist will used radiation which radioactive rays are used to cure or palliate cancers. The objective is to deliver a therapeutic dose of radiation to the malignant tissue, leaving healthy, surrounding tissues unharmed. Radiation therapy is used to treat many cancers, including cancers of bone, brain, breast, cervix, lymphoid tissues, and uterus. By then, from diagnosis through end of life, nurses play an obscure role in enhancing the quality of life of the patients especially which has undergone the treatment or newly diagnosed. Nurses are in a unique position to manipulate both the physiologic
