Photon Radiotherapy

Photon Radiotherapy is a form of external beam radiation therapy that uses high-energy photons generated by linear accelerators to deliver ionizing radiation to central nervous system tumors in pediatric patients, distinguished by its reliance on electromagnetic radiation for targeted tumor cell destruction while sparing surrounding healthy tissues.
