Nasopharyngeal carcinoma refers to a malignant tumor that occurs in the nasopharyngeal mucosa. Most patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma are middle-aged and adolescent. Many patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma do not know that they have nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the early stages.

Radiotherapy can be tried to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Radiotherapy is the first choice for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Cobalt-60 radiotherapy is superior to deep X-ray irradiation and can also be used together with cavity laser therapy. Radiotherapy has a more direct killing effect on cancer cells, but the adverse reactions are relatively large and can cause damage to normal cells. The dose, irradiation range and irradiation course should be carefully selected according to the extent of the lesion and the patient's physical condition.

The radiotherapy ratio for nasopharyngeal carcinoma is 40% to 70%. Patients who need early treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma are recommended to receive radiotherapy in hospitals with complete tumor radiotherapy equipment and advanced technical strength. Auxiliary treatment methods such as chemotherapy, surgery, and immunotherapy can also be used under the guidance of a doctor.
