Radiotherapy in benign conditions

radioterapia patología benigna

Radiotherapy in benign conditions uses the anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative effects of low-dose radiation to treat musculoskeletal, inflammatory, degenerative and proliferative processes.
 
The same radiation techniques are used as in oncological conditions, but at much lower doses, making the side effects minimal or non-existent.
 
Usually treatment consists of a few non-invasive sessions, of short duration.
 
The goal of treatment is to improve symptoms, with high success at reducing pain or even eradicating it completely
