Radiotherapy: A powerful weapon against cancer

Cancer remains one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide. However, advances in medical technology offer new hope in its treatment. One increasingly common treatment method is radiotherapy.
Radiotherapy is a cancer treatment method that uses high-energy radiation beams, such as X-rays or protons, to destroy cancer cells. The primary goal of therapy is to damage the DNA of cancer cells, preventing them from growing and multiplying.

Unlike chemotherapy, which spreads throughout the body through the bloodstream, radiotherapy works locally, meaning in the area of ​​the body affected by cancer.
