What are the side effects of radiotherapy treatment?

Hello,

Radiotherapy is a common treatment for cancer, using high-energy radiation to target and destroy cancer cells. It can be used alone or in combination with other treatments like surgery or chemotherapy, depending on the type and stage of cancer.

Common types include external beam radiation and internal radiation (brachytherapy).
