How Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) is performed
Before treatment, a fixed position and thermoplastic mask are usually made, a localization CT is completed, and other images are fused if necessary; the physician outlines the target area and organs at risk, the physicist formulates a dose plan, which is reviewed and then irradiated in daily fractions, and image guidance and position correction are performed. During the process, the skin, oral cavity and nutritional status are assessed, and supportive treatment is adjusted if necessary. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
