Cancers produce chemicals that tell the neighboring arteries to produce branches to support their growth and it is haphazard to say the least. This produces many more blood vessels than the neighboring tissues to support them and leads to a large delivery of blood.
It rotates around the body in 360 degree circle and delivers radiation through as many as 300 ports as it travels. It can be made to deliver the radiation to the tumors with as little as 1 millimeter of overshoot in the desired area in all dimensions (stereotactic body radiotherapy or volume loop therapy).
Cytotoxic chemotherapeutics have been the mainstay of chemotherapy regimens as they directly interrupt the cancer cells ability to divide, grow, and spread. Cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs, whether oral or IV, are transported in the bloodstream throughout the body.
There can be anywhere from 1 treatment to 40 treatments depending on the tumor type and the desired effect. There is typically no pain associated with these treatments and minor fatigue. Radiation can be of various forms; photons and electron are the typical types. These both work by damaging a cells DNA.
Subsequently many patients will be offered hormonal therapy. This can be in the setting where the cancer has spread widely and it is used to kill the cancer directly , as it is associated with a much better quality of life and superior response rates compared to chemotherapeutic agents.
