Department of Health earmarks another £30m for cancer

The machines are capable of delivering both standard radiotherapy and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), which is a particularly important form of treatment for head and neck cancers because it can be used to target the tumour more precisely, meaning there are fewer side-effects for patients. This can help improve the patient’s quality of life after treatment and save lives.
