Can nasopharyngeal cancer be cured? Is chemotherapy necessary? 1. At present, general hospitals treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma with surgical resection and chemotherapy in the early stage. 2. Surgery for nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be treated with the atomic knife multi-core guided implantation technology. Through the three-dimensional stereotactic TPS system, according to the location of the tumor and the required dose, the micro-atoms can be accurately implanted into the tumor or the tissue infiltrated by the tumor. During the treatment, the atoms form a radiation field, which projects strong light to the surrounding like a small sun, and emits continuous low-energy γ-rays. Its tissue penetration distance is only 1.7cm, which can destroy tumor cells to the greatest extent and make them lose their reproductive ability, thereby achieving a more thorough treatment effect, while also minimizing the damage to normal tissues. For nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients, the better the physical function and the stronger the tolerance, the better the treatment effect will be, and the greater the chance of nasopharyngeal carcinoma being cured. 3. In addition to surgery, radiotherapy is also a treatment method for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients often see "poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma" written on their test reports. The "squamous" refers to squamous cells, and "poorly differentiated" refers to the cells being in the "immature" age group. The "poor differentiation" of nasopharyngeal carcinoma does make it have the characteristics of active growth, rapid development, great destructiveness and easy metastasis, but it is also the characteristics of "poor differentiation" that make it particularly sensitive to a special substance - radiation. Practice has shown that the lower the differentiation of tumor cells, the higher the sensitivity to radiation. The sensitivity here means that the lower the degree of differentiation of tumor cells, the less they can withstand radiation. They are "very injured" under the radiation of radiation, and will disappear after several exposures. |
