The duration of the course of radiation therapy depends on the specifics of the disease, dose and radiation method used and takes from 1 day to 1.5 months (from 1 to 40 sessions).
It is strictly forbidden to interrupt the prescribed course of therapy on your own initiative, as such a break can lead to the emergence of tumor resistance to treatment.
In most cases, radiation therapy is well tolerated by patients and treatment is performed on an outpatient basis - hospitalization is not required.
