Radiation therapy is an important cancer treatment. However, it can cause soft-tissue radionecrosis, where cells in bones, organs, and soft tissues break down over time. These side effects may not appear right away. Delayed radiation injuries often develop months or even years later due to scarring and reduced blood flow near the treatment site.Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a proven treatment for radiation damage. It boosts healing, reduces inflammation, and promotes blood vessel growth. How HBOT Supports Recovery from Radiation Damage HBOT delivers 100% oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This increases oxygen levels in the blood and tissues, helping to repair radiation-related damage. Key Benefits of HBOT for Radiation Damage What HBOT Does Not Treat HBOT is effective for delayed radiation injuries, but it does not treat: If you have symptoms related to these conditions, consult a medical specialist immediately. Scientific Evidence Supporting HBOT for Radiation Injuries Research confirms that HBOT helps heal radiation-damaged tissues. Studies show: These findings highlight how HBOT restores damaged tissues and improves patient outcomes after radiation therapy. Why Choose Delaware Hyperbarics for Radiation Recovery?
