peer agreement (net): +4teletherapy (external beam radiation therapy); IV Explanation: This should be two questions. "Historically, the three main divisions of radiation therapy are: external beam radiation therapy (EBRT or XRT) or teletherapy;" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_therapy "Teletherapy is the use of radioactive material, such as 60Co, for production of an external beam of gamma rays for treatment at a distance from the radioactive source (tele, meaning “at a distance”). The term is historical and is in contrast to brachytherapy, in which the radioactive source is placed in or on the treatment volume (brachy, meaning “close”)." https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/... EV is short for endovenosa; it's "IV" (intravenous) in English. |
