The 76 pages that link to Radiation therapy, each with the reason it gives.

• RadiobiologyBroader topic: It uses differential tissue responses to control tumors while limiting normal-tissue injury.

• Ewing sarcomaRelated: It provides local tumor control when surgery is unsuitable or margins and response warrant radiation.

• Head and neck cancerRelated: It can treat head-and-neck tumors alone or alongside systemic therapy.

• TemozolomideRelated: Radiotherapy is commonly combined with temozolomide for newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

• ChondrosarcomaCompared with: Conventional chondrosarcoma often responds poorly to radiation, though selected cases may benefit.

• HypogeusiaRelated: Radiation to the head or neck can injure taste structures and reduce sensitivity.

• Li–Fraumeni syndromeCompared with: Concern about secondary malignancies can affect decisions about radiation-based treatment.

• Nuclear engineeringBroader topic: Treatment systems depend on precise radiation delivery and dose calculation.

• SarcomaRelated: Radiation may be used before or after surgery to improve local control.

• TherapeuticsRelated: It treats some diseases by directing energy at affected tissue.

• Medical procedureBroader topic: Radiotherapy treats disease through a planned course of targeted procedures.

• Organs at RiskNarrower topic: Organs at risk are defined in relation to a radiation treatment plan.

• Period 6 elementRelated: Cobalt-60, a radioactive isotope of period 6 element cobalt, is a radiation source.

• Radiation (physics)Related: It exploits radiation's ability to deposit energy in tissue.

• Radioactive sourceNarrower topic: Radioactive sources provide one way to deliver therapeutic radiation.

• Rolf Maximilian SievertRelated: Reliable dose measurement is necessary to deliver therapeutic radiation safely and consistently.

• Beam techniquesBroader topic: It directs energetic beams toward tumors while limiting dose to nearby tissue.

• Caesium-137Related: Caesium-137 sources have been used in external-beam cancer treatment.

• Edith Anne StoneyRelated: Stoney supported radiation treatment in military hospitals during World War I.

• Gamma-ray techniquesNarrower topic: Gamma-ray treatment is one modality within this broader therapeutic approach.

• History of cancerRelated: Radiation became a major treatment after X-rays and radioactivity were discovered.

• Joseph E. MurrayRelated: Murray’s early transplant program explored irradiation to reduce immune rejection before effective drugs were available.

• Kaposi's sarcomaRelated: Localized radiation can relieve symptoms or control selected lesions.

• Louis Harold GrayRelated: Radiobiological understanding of tissue response informs the delivery of therapeutic doses.

• Medical physics and public healthRelated: Population cancer services depend on accurate treatment planning and safe radiation delivery.

• Sjögren's diseaseCompared with: Radiation to the head or neck can reduce saliva and mimic gland-related symptoms without autoimmunity.
