Welcome to another episode of That Cancer Conversation!
Here in the UK, radiotherapy plays a part in treating more than 140,000 people with cancer every year. From infants to adults, radiotherapy is a precise and personalised tool used to target many different types of cancer.
But how does it all work?
In this episode Sophie speaks to Hayley Brown, a science engagement manager at Cancer Research UK to explain alongside breaking down the history and evolution of radiotherapy. Sophie also speaks to Nevo, a image consultant and stylist who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012 and underwent radiotherapy as part of her cancer treatment. She explains what is was like and why she believes it's important to keep having a conversation about cancer.
