Radiation Therapy for Joint Pain: Innovation in Musculoskeletal Treatment

Inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions are a common concern, particularly among older adults worldwide. These conditions, primarily arthritis-related, cause joint degeneration and debilitating pain that can significantly impact mobility and quality of life. Osteoarthritis, the most prevalent form, is responsible for more than 90% of total hip and knee replacements worldwide. While traditional treatments often rely on long-term analgesic therapy or, in severe cases, joint replacement, new advancements are expanding options for pain relief.

At the Charach Cancer Treatment Center, we are committed to providing comprehensive orthopedic care, which includes exploring innovative treatments like radiation therapy for inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions. Research suggests that low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) may help reduce pain and inflammation in conditions like osteoarthritis, offering a promising noninvasive alternative to long-term medication use and its potential side effects. For those who has exhausted other treatment options, we offer LDRT for arthritis and plantar fasciitis.
