Cobalt-60 Teletherapy is a form of external beam radiotherapy that uses cobalt-60, a radioactive isotope, to deliver high doses of radiation to cancerous tissues. It was first developed by Harold E. Johns and colleagues in 1951. This invention revolutionized the field of radiation therapy, making it possible to treat deep-seated tumors and improving cancer treatment outcomes.
