In our commitment to providing personalized and effective radiation therapy, BMCHRC utilizes PET-based planning to enhance treatment accuracy and efficacy. By incorporating Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans into the treatment planning process, we are able to precisely delineate tumor boundaries and identify areas of active disease. This enables us to tailor radiation doses to target specific areas while sparing healthy tissue, leading to improved outcomes and reduced side effects for our patients.
Brachytherapy is a vital component of our comprehensive radiation oncology services at BMCHRC. With this technique, we deliver radiation directly to the tumor site by placing radioactive sources inside or close to the tumor. This allows for high doses of radiation to be delivered precisely to the affected area while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. Whether used alone or in combination with other treatments, brachytherapy offers a targeted approach to cancer treatment, improving outcomes and quality of life for our patients.
At BMCHRC's Radiation Oncology Services, we prioritize patient education to ensure informed decision-making and confidence throughout the radiation therapy process. Our comprehensive educational resources provide detailed insights into radiation therapy, covering topics such as treatment procedures, potential side effects, and self-care tips. By empowering patients with knowledge, we aim to alleviate anxiety and foster a sense of control over their treatment journey.

Our commitment to patient care extends beyond the completion of radiation therapy. We provide ongoing monitoring and follow-up care to ensure that patients receive the necessary support and assistance during their recovery period. Through regular check-ups, imaging scans, and consultations, we track patients' progress, address any lingering side effects or concerns, and adjust their care plans as needed. By offering continuous support and guidance, we strive to promote healing, enhance quality of life, and empower patients to lead fulfilling lives beyond cancer treatment.
Meet our esteemed team of medical professionals, each equipped with years of specialized expertise and unwavering dedication to patient care.
At BMCHRC, we offer Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT) as part of our advanced radiation therapy options. This innovative technique delivers a concentrated dose of radiation directly to the tumor bed during surgery, immediately after the tumor has been removed. By precisely targeting the affected area while sparing nearby healthy tissues and organs, IORT reduces the risk of recurrence and minimizes potential side effects. This approach not only enhances treatment effectiveness but also offers the convenience of completing radiation therapy in a single session, providing our patients with comprehensive and streamlined care.

Radiation Oncology is a medical specialty that utilizes high-energy radiation to treat cancer. It focuses on delivering precise doses of radiation to cancerous tumors while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues.
Radiation Therapy works by damaging the DNA within cancer cells, preventing them from multiplying and growing. Over time, this leads to the death of cancer cells and shrinkage of tumors.
Radiation Therapy can be used to treat a wide range of Cancers, including Breast Cancer, Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Brain Tumors, and many others.
Radiation Therapy can be used as a Standalone Treatment (Primary Therapy) or in combination with Surgery, Chemotherapy, or Immunotherapy, depending on the type and Stage of Cancer.
Common side effects of Radiation Therapy may include Fatigue, Skin Irritation at the treatment site, Nausea, and changes in Appetite. However, side effects vary depending on the area being treated and the dose of radiation delivered.
The Radiation Therapy treatment plan is developed based on detailed imaging studies, such as CT Scans or MRI Scans, to precisely delineate the tumor and nearby critical structures. Radiation Oncologists work with medical physicists and dosimetrists to create a customized treatment plan that maximizes dose to the tumor while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues.
Radiation Therapy sessions typically last between 10 to 30 minutes, although the actual treatment time may vary depending on the complexity of the treatment plan and the type of Radiation Therapy being delivered.
The number of Radiation Therapy sessions varies depending on factors such as the type of Cancer, the location and size of the Tumor, and the treatment goals. Some patients may require daily treatments over several weeks, while others may undergo fewer sessions.
Most Radiation Therapy treatments are delivered on an outpatient basis, meaning patients can return home after each session. In some cases, hospitalization may be necessary for specialized radiation treatments or if additional medical support is required.
While Radiation Therapy is generally well-tolerated, it can cause long-term side effects in some patients. These may include radiation-induced Fibrosis, Lymphedema, or Secondary Cancers. However, modern Radiation techniques aim to minimize these risks.
Yes, Radiation Therapy can be used as Palliative Care to relieve symptoms such as Pain, Bleeding, or Obstruction caused by advanced Cancer. Palliative Radiation Therapy aims to improve quality of life and alleviate suffering.
Hair loss is not a common side effect of Radiation Therapy, except when the treatment is delivered to the scalp or head and neck region. Even then, hair loss is usually temporary and may grow back after treatment is completed.
While there are no specific dietary restrictions during Radiation Therapy, patients may be advised to eat a well-balanced diet to maintain their strength and energy levels. It's essential to discuss any dietary concerns with your healthcare team.
Many patients are able to continue working and engaging in regular activities during Radiation Therapy, depending on how they feel and the side effects experienced. However, it's essential to listen to your body and communicate with your healthcare team about any limitations.
Your healthcare team will provide guidance on managing side effects during Radiation Therapy. This may include skincare recommendations, dietary advice, and strategies for managing Fatigue or Nausea. It's crucial to report any new or worsening symptoms to your healthcare provider promptly.
