Although you will have a number of medical experts guiding your care and treatment,
you are a central part of the team. You should not hesitate to ask any questions
you may have or to express any concerns.
Some of the questions you may want your health care professional to answer:
• What is the purpose of radiation treatment for
my type of cancer?
• Will it destroy or shrink the tumor?
• What are the chances that radiation therapy will work?
• How will the radiation directly affect the cancer and the area surrounding
it?
• What side effects might I expect from the radiation treatment?
• Will the side effects be temporary or permanent?
• How will the dosage of my radiation treatment be measured?
•
Will you have a permanent record of my dosage, in case it’s needed in
the future?
•
Is the OneDose™ system appropriate for the type of radiation that I’ll
receive?
• is the OneDose™ system appropriate for the type of tumor that I have?
