    Yes-I never heard of it...so it's kind of an extension of treatments?

    I don't think it would be
    I don't think it would be called an extension of treatment disneyfan, it is part of the radiation treatment. You have the normal radiation treatments, a certain amount, and then you have the booster radiation treatments at the tumor site.

    IF boosters are appropriate
    IF boosters are appropriate for 'you' - they will be after general radiation BUT 'they' are not appropriate for ALL. So yes - one might have boosters but not all do.
