Joint pain and stiffness from conditions like osteoarthritis, plantar fibromatosis and palmar fibromatosis can greatly affect your mobility and quality of life. But did you know radiation therapy — commonly used to treat cancer — can also be delivered at very low doses to safely reduce inflammation and relieve pain in these non-cancer conditions?
Join Dario Pasalic, MD, and Patrick Richard, MD, MPH, from Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers for an informative lecture on how low-dose radiation therapy is being used to treat common musculoskeletal problems. They’ll explain who may benefit, what treatment looks like, and how side effects are minimized.
You’ll learn about new research, see how this therapy fits into the broader treatment plan, and leave with practical knowledge to discuss with your health care provider — so you can stay active, comfortable, and independent.
