|
3D Imaging for precise targeting |
Treatment is carefully
planned on a sophisticated computer | |
| IGRT shows
your radiation oncologist exactly where a tumor is and if it has moved prior
to each treatment with either Three Dimensional Conformal or Intensity
Modulated Radiation Therapy (3DCRT or IMRT). The radiation beam can then be
adjusted based on the position of the target and critical organs while the
patient is in the treatment position.
IGRT precisely targets cancers better than was traditionally possible, so
target dose can be increased and side effects reduced for better treatment
outcome. |
