It’s called field cancerization. The lower dose radiation is the best current path with few long term implications of normal high dose radiation. With it you will be sure they got everything. While this is a relatively new protocol it in clinical trials had a high degree of success and is the current thought today. It was pioneered at Mayo Clinic which has the longest term data on its success rates if you want to research it.
