Cobalt units are specialized machines used in radiation therapy to treat various types of cancer. These units utilize cobalt-60, a radioactive isotope, to emit gamma rays that precisely target and destroy cancer cells while sparing healthy surrounding tissue. Known for their reliability and effectiveness, cobalt units are particularly useful in settings where more advanced radiation therapy technology is not available. Treatment with a cobalt unit is typically administered over several sessions, with each session lasting only a few minutes. These units are staffed by experienced healthcare professionals who ensure safe, accurate delivery of radiation therapy, providing a vital treatment option for cancer patients.
