Patient's question:
Six months ago, I was diagnosed with pelvic cancer. After treatment, the condition has not improved. The doctor said that particle implantation can be performed, so I would like to ask if pelvic cancer can undergo particle implantation? Is the effect good?Doctor's answer:
Particle implantation is a method for treating pelvic cancer. The radiotherapy particle implantation technique primarily relies on a stereotactic system to accurately implant radioactive particles into the tumor. Through the emission of continuous, short-distance radiation from micro-sources, the tumor tissue is maximally destroyed while normal tissue remains undamaged or only slightly injured. Generally, the effectiveness of particle implantation in treating pelvic cancer is quite good.
