How Postoperative Radiation Therapy (IMRT/VMAT, According to Pathology) is performed
Radiotherapy is a non-surgical treatment. The process includes making a fixed position (such as a thermoplastic mask), positioning CT and, if necessary, fusing it with MRI; the doctor outlines the target area and organs at risk, and formulates an intensity-modulated plan (IMRT/VMAT). The treatment is divided into multiple fractions with small doses, and is implemented by a linear accelerator under image guidance. During the course of treatment, changes in oral mucosa, skin, and weight are monitored, and nutritional and analgesic support is given if necessary. The goal is to reduce the risk of local recurrence and protect normal tissues. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
