I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Doctors use radiation therapy most often to treat cancer. Your doctor may recommend radiotherapy to: destroy a cancerous tumor. Lower the risk that cancer will grow again after other treatments such as surgery or chemotherapy. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
