Radiotherapy. Radiotherapy uses pulses of radiation to destroy cancer cells. There are a number of ways it can be used to treat lung cancer. An intensive course of radiotherapy, known as radical radiotherapy, may be used to treat non-small-cell lung cancer if you are not healthy enough for surgery.
Most often, radiation treatments as part of the initial treatment for SCLC is given once or twice daily, 5 days a week, for 3 to 7 weeks.
Most can be expected to improve within a few weeks after radiation therapy is completed. Throughout the course of your radiation therapy for lung cancer, it will be important for you to communicate candidly with your physician. If you experience any unpleasant side effects, there may be options to help you manage them.
Most often, radiation treatments to the lungs are given 5 days a week for 5 to 7 weeks, but this can vary based on the type of EBRT and the reason it's being given. Newer EBRT techniques have been shown to help doctors treat lung cancers more accurately while lowering the radiation exposure to nearby healthy tissues.
Radiation therapy for lung cancer uses high-energy beams called x-rays to kill cancer cells. It is very effective at controlling or eliminating tumors at specific sites in the body and can improve a patient's prognosis.
