The gamma radiation emitted from the radioisotopes cobalt (60CO) has been used for the treatment of cancer as the gamma rays has enough potential to destroy the cancer cells. The treatment from radioisotopes has gained scope in past two decades. The gamma radiation have been widely used for the sterilization of the medicinal product but the dose dependent effect of gamma radiation has help in the treatment of cancer cells. The gamma radiation if handled correctly by mapping the tumour and selecting the area will not affect the healthy surrounding tissues and thus making the method more safe and effective. In the selective cancerous cells only the gamma radiation get trapped and act while the normal cells are not injured. The gamma radiation kills the DNA or damage the DNA of the cancerous cell making the cell to die. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
