BREAST CANCER - What's TOMO? and more than you may have wanted to know about radiation

Here is a possible place to look up specific definitions of some strange radiation therapy initials or words you may have heard from another patient or seen on Twitter or in the news.  This CUSF page does not specify use of any one or the other of these treatments for breast cancer.  It is rather a radiation glossary, dictionary, and better source than asking somebody next to us in the waiting room what radiation terms mean.
