Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is a precise cancer treatment that delivers high doses of radiation to tumors in a targeted way. It uses advanced imaging technology to pinpoint the tumor's location and surrounding tissues, allowing doctors to focus the radiation accurately. This minimizes damage to nearby healthy cells and can lead to more effective treatment in fewer sessions compared to traditional radiation therapy. SBRT is often used for tumors in the lungs, liver, spine, and other hard-to-reach areas. It's an innovative option that aims to improve outcomes for patients with various types of cancer.
