• Radiotherapy: High ionizing radiations or high-powered energy beams (X-ray or Protons) are utilized to kill cancer cells.
• Radiosurgery: Innovation in radiotherapy, where a high dose of radiation is explicitly targeted at cancer cells without damaging nearby healthy tissues.
• Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): Advanced radiation therapy for reducing the damage to active cells and tissues by the use of the high precision technique.
• Targeted Therapy: This therapy uses drugs that block/interfere with some molecules required by the cancer cells for their growth.
• Brachytherapy: Also known as radioactive seeds, where radiation therapy is used to kill cancer cells. It differs from radiotherapy, as radioactive material is directly placed on the tumour in this method.
• Image-Guided Radiosurgery: Procedure that helps achieve pinpoint accuracy to treat cancerous tumours, surgical instruments are used with preoperative or intraoperative images by surgeons.
• Image-Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT): Imaging techniques are used during radiation treatment to direct radiation therapy by utilizing imaging coordinates of the radiotherapy plan.
• Photodynamic Therapy: This remedy entails use of a drug (photosensitizing agent) and a distinct form of light. At some point of this remedy, a specific wavelength of light is incident on the drug, in which the photosensitizing agent gets activated and oxygen is produced. This therapy effectively kills cancer cells.
• Stem Cell Cancer Treatment: Stem cells are early blood cells that develop into RBCs, WBCs, and platelets. Stem cell transplant stimulates formation of new blood cells that were destroyed by cancer.
• Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy: Introduced in 2007, this method delivers treatment with accuracy and speed. High dose distributions with accurate target volume are achieved with this novel radiation technique
• Gene Therapy: Utilises genes to treat cancer. Abnormal or the absent gene is replaced with the normal one so that useful proteins are produced.
• Proton Therapy: Proton beams are irradiated on cancer tissues to treat cancer.
• Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): In this method, excessive doses of radiation consisting of several beams of different intensities are directed at various angles to target cancer cells.
