Diseases & Conditions

Receiving a diagnosis of cancer can be overwhelming. To help people with cancer and their families better understand their treatment choices, we are providing the following information to explain how radiation therapy works to cure cancer and the various types of cancers.  This material is informational only and should not be used in place of advice from a medical professional.

If you are dealing with cancer, we encourage you to talk with a radiation oncologist to see if radiation therapy is right for you, your cancer and your lifestyle. Click here to find a UCLA radiation oncologist.
