By pursuing a radiation therapy major at Saint Louis University, you'll gain expertise in treating cancer patients with advanced radiation technology. Your studies will emphasize developing treatment plans and delivering precise radiation doses under the guidance of radiation oncologists. Radiation therapists are healthcare specialists who master both the technical and compassionate aspects of cancer treatment. Their role encompasses creating and implementing radiation therapy plans while also addressing patients' overall comfort and care. These professionals operate sophisticated linear accelerators to deliver carefully measured radiation doses, aiming to either cure the disease or manage symptoms to enhance patients' lives. Additionally, therapists carefully track patients' responses to treatment, noting any side effects, and maintain detailed documentation of treatment protocols and equipment operation.
