Brain tumour radiotherapy treatment. 3D computed tomography (CT) scan of a 42-year-old patient undergoing radiotherapy to treat a brain tumour. The patient is wearing a custom-made rigid mask (dots) to hold their head in position during treatment. Guide lasers are also used to help plan and target the radiotherapy so that the radiation is focused on precisely the same site in each treatment session.
