Your doctor may suggest radiation therapy as part of your treatment plan to treat soft tissue masses that can compromise the nerves and, less commonly, for bone pain relief. Radiation therapy is a local treatment that affects only the cancer cells in the treated area. It can be used in combination with chemotherapy.
