Computed tomography (CT) is utilized for radiation treatment planning. 4-D CT produces images of the tumor with normal organ motion further improving the ability to accurately target the tumor.

IMRT allows higher doses of radiation to be delivered directly to tumors and cancer cells, while surrounding organs and tissues are protected.

RapidArc shortens treatment time and can further improve precision of the radiation treatment. The dynamic multileaf collimator (MLC), variable dose rate, and variable gantry speed together generate IMRT-quality dose distributions in a single or multiple arcs or rotations around the patient.

Cone Beam IGRT technology enables CT images of the tumor and surrounding tissue to be acquired before each daily treatment. The daily CT image is compared to the initial treatment planning CT image and adjustments are made to the patient position. Cone Beam CT technology improves precision by accounting for tumor motion within a patient on a day-to-day basis. 

A radiation technique that uses precise patient positioning and extremely accurate radiation delivery to treatment brain lesions in one or up to five treatments. Sophisticated immobilization devices are utilized in conjunction with a Varian linear accelerator to give treatment with great precision, speed and patient comfort. SRS allows patients to avoid the toxicity of entire brain radiation treatment.

Uses the same precise technique to treat tumors outside of the brain. This is most often used for small tumors in the lung, liver or spine.

A highly radioactive source of Iridium 192 is positioned in complex applicators to deliver a high dose of radiation quickly and directly to the tumor site. Most often used to treat uterus or cervical cancers.

A technique where radioactive iodine or palladium seeds are implanted directly into the prostate. The radiation therapy is effectively delivered continuously over a number of months. The activity of the seeds diminish over time within the patient and become harmless.
