Intracellular radiation therapy
Intracanal radiation therapy (IRT) is a method of treating cancer that involves using ionizing radiation to destroy cancer cells.
TLV is one of the most effective methods for treating tumors, as it allows radiation to be precisely targeted to the affected area without affecting healthy tissue.
To carry out TLT, special radiopharmaceuticals or radioactive needles are used, which are injected directly into the tumor or surrounding tissue. Then this area is irradiated using a special device that generates radiation.
One of the main advantages of TLV is that it can be used to treat tumors of any location, including tumors of the brain, lungs, breast and other organs.
However, like any other treatment method, TLV has its drawbacks. For example, it can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and other gastrointestinal problems. There is also a risk of developing complications such as radiation sickness and other radiation damage.
Overall, TLT is an effective treatment for cancer and can be recommended for patients who are contraindicated for other treatments. However, before performing TLT, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination of the patient and select the optimal radiation dose.
Interstitial radiation therapy is a modern method of treating malignant tumors. The use of this type of therapy allows one to achieve good results in cancer diseases of various organs.
The essence of the method is that a substance containing a radioactive element is injected into the organ containing the tumor. When this substance enters the body, it begins to release radiation that affects the tumor. Radiation energy destroys cancer cells, which begin to die. As a result of this treatment, a significant reduction in the tumor is achieved, and over time the patient's condition may improve until complete recovery.
In interstitial radiotherapy, various methods and radiopharmaceutical forms are used, such as:
1. Brachytherapy is a procedure in which radioactive drugs are inserted into the tissue near the tumor. It is used to reduce the size of tumors smaller than two centimeters. 2. Low-dose radiation therapy is a technique that is used to treat tumors larger than two centimeters but less than five centimeters in diameter. The advantage of this method is that the patient needs to walk less
