Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for the query. It seems like your doctor consider that there is a need for adjuvant radiotherapy and this is usually done when there is spread tumor or suspicious of it or as a prevention in highly invasive tumors. So I suggest going through this and not to worry because you need to do everything to prevent tumor recurrence. Wish you good health. Regards
