techniques to lower scalp temperature during chemotherapy to prevent hair loss

Cooling methods refer to techniques used to lower the temperature of the scalp during chemotherapy to reduce the risk of hair loss, a condition known as chemotherapy-induced alopecia. These methods typically involve the use of cold caps or scalp cooling systems that constrict blood vessels, thereby limiting the amount of chemotherapy drugs that reach the hair follicles. This can help preserve hair and improve the quality of life for patients undergoing treatment.
