Next in our Frequently asked questions answered by a Radiographer is a question we get asked on a daily basis. Once our patients are in the treatment position & the radiographers leave the room, where do they go to ? #teambehindthebeams #therapeuticradiographers

Have you wondered what a Linear Accelerator looks like when it’s moving? A linac can move around you in a 360 degree motion, like the video below. There is nothing to feel or see during radiotherapy treatment & the machine will never touch you ☢️ #teambehindthebeams

Have you ever wondered how a Beam Directional Shell is created?💡 This is made bespoke to each patient who requires it. Allowing radiotherapy to be delivered accurately to the head & neck area These masks fit firmly once dry, but are not painful. ☢️ #teambehindthebeams

Did you know? There is nothing to see or feel during radiotherapy treatment. Machines make a buzzing noise whilst the beam of radiation is on. This is what you can expect to hear if you are coming to receive radiotherapy ☢️ #teambehindthebeams
