Radiation Therapy is the treatment of disease, usually some type of cancer, with x-rays, electrons and other types of radiation. The source of the radiation may be an electrical linear accelerator, an electrical orthovoltage unit, or radioactive materials such as Cesium. The method of radiation used depends on the location and type of condition being treated. Radiation Therapy can be used in conjunction with surgery and chemotherapy to treat cancer or used alone. For many cancers, radiation therapy is the most effective treatment.
