Your treatment team will let you know how much time to allow for each treatment visit. A treatment visit includes time to have your radiation therapy and may need to include time to:
- see a doctor, nurse or other health professional
- take medications before or after treatment
- do other tasks to prepare for treatment, such as fill or empty your bladder.
Treatments may be delayed due to unexpected events such as equipment issues or emergency treatments. In these cases, your treatment staff will let you know what is happening.
