Abstract: Total Body Irradiation (TBI) is a technique in which large fields of radiation can be administered to the entire body. It is a treatment modality that uses ionizing radiation for pre-transplant conditioning. The study aimed to provide health professionals with knowledge regarding the treatment of TBI. This is an experience report about practices carried out in a Radiotherapy Unit. Whole body irradiation (TBI) is used for two purposes, the first is used to suppress the patient's immune system, thus preventing rejection of the donor's bone marrow. And the second to eradicate abnormal cells that escape other therapies, such as surgery, chemotherapy or local irradiation, which remain hidden in the body and can grow again later. The study aims to expand knowledge and discuss the topic, improving the care provided to patients and their families.
