Conditions We Manage
We offer several advanced radiation therapy techniques to treat cancer with precision and effectiveness:
Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)
A high-precision radiation technique that allows for modulation of radiation doses to spare healthy tissues.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
Delivers high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumors in fewer treatment sessions.
Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT)
A form of IMRT that delivers radiation in a 360-degree arc, enhancing treatment speed and precision.
Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)
Uses real-time imaging to ensure precise delivery of radiation.
Brachytherapy
Internal radiation treatment, particularly effective for cancers such as prostate and cervical cancer.
Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IORT)
Administers radiation during surgery, particularly useful for breast and gastrointestinal cancers.
