Radiation Oncology
Swedish is the most comprehensive resource for advanced targeted radiation therapy for cancerous and noncancerous tumors, and for a variety of neurological conditions. Delivering precise radiation to the tumor while also sparing nearby healthy tissue and organs requires the development of a detailed, personalized treatment plan. While the treatment plan helps determine the exact area where the radiation needs to be focused, it also considers the patient's quality of life during and after treatment.
Types of radiation therapy include:
- Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)
- Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)
- Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT)
- High Dose Rate Brachytherapy
- Bladder Cancer
- Brain Cancer
- Breast Cancer
- Cervical Cancer
- Colorectal Cancer
- Esophageal Cancer
- Leukemia
- Liver Cancer
- Lung Cancer
- Mesothelioma
- Multiple Myeloma
- Ovarian Cancer
- Pancreatic Cancer
- Prostate Cancer
