Tomotherapy Treatment in Hyderabad

Tomotherapy Treatment

Tomotherapy is an advanced treatment procedure to treat Cancer. It is a combination of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) with the accuracy of computed tomography (CT) scanning technology (IGRT- image-guided radiotherapy) all in one machine. It is one of the most precise techniques for radiotherapy.

What is Tomotherapy?

A form of radiation therapy combining intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with computed tomography (CT) scanning technology. Offers precise targeting of tumors, minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues.

Suitability for Tomotherapy:

• Ideal for complex or hard-to-reach tumors, including those in the brain, spine, and prostate.
• Beneficial for cases where precision is crucial to avoid damaging critical organs.

Why is this technology unique?

Tomotherapy preserves the healthy tissues by precisely focusing on the malignant cells. The unique 4D kV imaging feature provides 4D volume images of the moving tumors. It is a non-invasive technique. The CT scanner enables treatment delivery from 360 degrees around the patient. It is so precise that it can also be used to treat recurrent cancers.

Uses of tomotherapy

• Tomotherapy can be used before the surgery to shrink the tumor.
• It can be used as the primary treatment for any kind of Cancer.
• It reduces the symptoms during later stages of Cancer and can be used as palliative treatment.
• It can be used to treat secondary Cancer.
