Cancer Treatment

Cancer is a disease in which cells in a certain part of the body grows out of control and develop into a tumor or the mass occurs. Today there are many types of cancer, men, women and children wear, such as breast cancer, melanoma or skin cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia and colorectal cancer. Extensive research on its treatment still the world's best scientists.

While a few decades ago, experts had not developed a solution for today with the help of modern technology, doctors and scientists have to destroy a tool to detect the disease at an early stage and abnormal cells . Although cancer is a serious disease and a growing concern in the world, there are many who fought successfully through early diagnosis of the disease.

TomoTherapy

TomoTherapy modern cancer treatments in the modern world. This unique method of aligning a tumor is an integrated advanced form of image-guided radiotherapy in 3 dimensions to treat cancer. Indeed, a more specific TomoHD unit irradiating smaller tumors.

HOW IT WORKS

Before each treatment, technical sophisticated 3D scanning an image of the treatment area can be beams are directed, depending on the size, shape and location of the tumor (s) that day. During treatment, you can adjust the intensity and direction of the beam in real time. Therapy revolutionary approach treats the tumor part one layer at a time. Side effects are often minimized because less radiation reaches the healthy tissues and organs.

360 delivery.

The standard version of the machine allows radiation delivered from several directions. Treatment systems TomoTherapy ™ linear accelerator (Linac) attached to the CT, such as a ring gantry, the tomotherapy treating agents are supplied continuously on all sides around the patient. Other parts of the world give doctors more control over the process and they expect more confidence that the dose to the tumor limit, increasing the risk of short-term and long-term side effects.

Thousands of targeted partial beams.

TomoTherapy treatment system uses patented technology Multi-collimator (MLC), the. The beam of small radiation beams between all directed against the tumor Typically, tens of thousands of small beams in one session used TomoTherapy. Powerful software to optimize the contribution of each ODS to minimize the exposure of healthy tissue.
