Why does the radiation for cancer treatments comes in many different beams from many different directions toward the body instead of just one beam aimed toward the tumor?
This is done to try to protect the person receiving the beams. The radiation needs to be strong enough to kill the tumor cells. This is also strong enough to kill healthy cells. If they just shot a single beam of a high enough intensity in, it would kill the tumor, but it would also kill the healthy cells in front of the tumor. By using separate beams, they can make each one weak enough to not kill the healthy cells, but where the beams cross at the tumor, the combined strength is high enough to kill the tumor cells.
