5.4 Bachelor / B.Sc. in Radiation Therapy Technology (BRTT)<br />
Radiation therapy is the medical use of ionizing radiation as part of cancer treatment to control<br />
neoplastic cells. Radiotherapy may be used for curative or adjuvant cancer treatment. It is used as<br />
palliative/therapeutic treatment. Radiotherapy has several applications in non-malignant conditions,<br />
such as the treatment of Trigeminal<br />
neuralgia, severe eye diseases, pterygium,<br />
pigmented villonodular synovitis,<br />
prevention of keloid scar growth, and<br />
prevention of heterotopic ossification,<br />
thyroid and other diseases. The use of<br />
radiotherapy in non-malignant conditions<br />
is limited partly due to risk of radiationinduced<br />
cancers.<br />
