It is sometimes called radiation therapy, radiation therapy, cobalt therapy, electron beam therapy, or irradiation
Radiation therapy is delivered via external radiation or via internal radiation therapy (the implantation/injection of radioactive substances).
Radiation Therapy is not transferred to clothing.
Radiation therapy is a local treatment
In external radiation therapy a beam of radiation is directed from outside the body at the cancer
Radiation Therapy dose is measured in Gray (abbrev. Gy).
Prostate cancer responds well to radiation therapy
If you are interested in taking a couple courses on radiation therapy, then there are many different kinds of schools that offer different courses in radiation therapy.
