Is Radiation Therapy Right For Me?

Radiation therapy is a specialized method of treating cancer using precision techniques that may be prescribed alone or in addition to other treatment methods, such as chemotherapy and/or surgery. 

These treatments are often highly effective, yet they are minimally invasive and yield only mild side effects.  Radiation therapy treatments are prescribed and overseen by a highly specialized doctor called a radiation oncologist.  Once a patient has been diagnosed with cancer, his/her physician may recommend a consultation with a radiation oncologist to determine if he/she is a good candidate for radiation therapy.

Every year new technologies and improved techniques continue to improve radiation therapy's effectiveness and safety.  We address many frequently asked questions on our FAQ page in the Patient Resources section of this website, but if you have any questions regarding the treatment options at Princeton Radiation Oncology, feel free to contact us at any time.  If you are a cancer patient who is interested in radiation therapy, it is important that you begin by discussing your options with your medical oncologist.
