A radioactive drug is then injected weekly every four to six weeks to attack the tumour.
injected weekly every four to six weeks ??
I assume it means that it's injected weekly in four to six week intervals, with breaks in between.
Alternatively, they use a feeble nurse.
Yeah cause (cancer) cells dont die instantly after getting radioactively damaged so you can/should wait a while to see the damage the radiation did and then you can hit it again.
But is it weekly, or is it every four to six weeks?
I only know this for radiotherapy where you shoot stuff from a ray cannon.
But basically there is a lethal dosis for cells and spreading it over several days and stuff reduxes side effects but sometimes you need to be quick and therefore go for higher doses and shorter timespans. This writeup has some details if youre interested in this.
If you apply the substance into the body you have to also take elimination into consideration. Then do the maths how much you need to apply so that you reach these lethal doses and when to reapply it again.
Bruh.
Write down what you think the treatment schedule looks like.
The schedule.
It's uplifting to hear a single case but I pray the medical organisations approve this treatment and get it around everyone suffering from such disease around the world.
