Mesothelioma Treatment Using Brachytherapy

 Brachytherapy is radiation, and the cast of a pattern of unusual treatment of mesothelioma. Has been used in good faith for more than a century to treat mesothelioma.

 And uses radiation therapy for the treatment of mesothelioma from ionizing radiation, and from there to kill cancer cells. Radiation therapy to make the threat internally or externally. When radiotherapy is performed outside the radiation is placed in the body of the device outside the body, which is called a linear accelerator.

 When radiotherapy is performed internally by the radiation is placed inside the body. Radiotherapy and brachytherapy is responsible for internal calls. "Addressing the irradiation procedure" comes from the Greek conspiracy, which means "short compass." Is the radiation in the body a short distance away, therefore, brachytherapy. Some other names for internal radiotherapy radiotherapy closed source, or radiation therapy endocurietherapy the implementation of the followers.

 Is put into the source of radiation near the cancer or the right can not be refuted. Radiation that is placed within the emitted radiation kills cancer cells, but the responsibility does not equal genocide inches in diameter, and the exhibition of the same requirement placed near the site of radiation cancer.

 And recognized two types of brachytherapy contradistinctive:

 - Treatment irradiation provisional rules of procedure

 - Treatment lasting irradiation of internal

 Temporary brachytherapy involves placing radioactive seeds (radiation) inside the body, thus removing a clear benefit to the ultimate success.

 Stay brachytherapy involves placing radioactive seeds into the shape and jumping. Radioactive seeds emit radiation that completely break the following absolute value of the past, but in the home without causing physical problems.

 Famous people who run the teams on the launch of brachytherapy. Among this group are tumors, radiation therapy, physics, radio, radiation therapy, and a tool to take the manual procedure.

 Decided to treat tumors, radio and compass to express their game plan a total of treatment, even without physics radio decided to provide a tool for the use of the flow of radiation dose to the dosimeter decide the representation of the head and help distribute the dose is the team that runs a radiation specialist in radiation therapy.

 The brachytherapy to the production of a safer design for the treatment of mesothelioma cancer to other treatments, but recognized side effects of this procedure. Precisely match procedure is the stigma of pain at the site of radiation can be placed in more swelling in the same area. In short - term side effects are pain and sorry in place on a frequent basis, but the past few days alone.
