Types of radiation therapy in oncology include External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT), Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS), Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT), Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) and 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT).
A radiation therapist is a healthcare professional who is trained to deliver radiation therapy under the direction of a radiation oncologist. A radiation oncologist is a medical doctor who specializes in using radiation therapy to treat cancer and is responsible for designing the radiation treatment plan and monitoring the patient's response to treatment.
The benefits of radiotherapy include high cure rates for certain types of cancer, can be used alone or in combination with other treatments, help to control cancer growth and relieve symptoms, and can be targeted to specific areas of the body.
Brachytherapy is a type of radiation therapy that involves placing a small source of radioactive material inside or close to the tumor. It is typically performed by radiation oncologists who are trained in brachytherapy techniques.
Radiation oncologists are exposed to low levels of radiation while performing their job, but the risk is considered to be low. They wear protective gear and follow safety protocols to minimize their exposure.
Side effects of radiation therapy can include: 

  • Fatigue
  • Skin irritation
  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Loss of appetite
  • Hair loss and 
  • Damage to surrounding healthy tissue

Oncologists recommend radiation treatment even though it can cause side effects because it can be an effective way to treat cancer and can help to control cancer growth and relieve symptoms.
During the first visit to a radiation oncologist, the patient will undergo a thorough examination and the oncologist will review the patient's medical history, perform a physical examination, and order diagnostic tests such as imaging studies. The oncologist will then discuss the patient's treatment options and develop a treatment plan.
