Overview

Electron beam radiation therapy is used to treat lymphoma in the skin. We use Total Skin Electron Beam therapy (TSEB) as one of the methods for treating mycosis fungoides a variant of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) and several other cutaneous disorders.

Small areas of the skin can be treated locally for patients with only a few areas on their skin. TSEB is radiation directed at the entire skin surface of the body. TSEB is used whenever there are large areas of the skin which are problematic.
