Where and how are the treatments given?

Patients almost always receive radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the hospital as out-patients at the Bath Cancer Unit in RUH North, but hormonal treatments are usually given in the form of tablets taken at home.

Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are given by teams of highly qualified and experienced radiographers and nurses respectively.
