IMRT uses computer-controlled linear accelerators to deliver precise radiation doses. Sophisticated imaging techniques, including CT, MRI, or PET scans, map the tumor in three dimensions. The radiation intensity can be modulated within each beam, allowing the oncologist to target irregularly shaped tumors while protecting nearby critical structures such as the spinal cord, heart, or kidneys.

• Precision Targeting: Delivers high-dose radiation directly to the tumor.
• Reduced Side Effects: Protects healthy tissues surrounding the tumor.
• Treatment for Complex Tumors: Effective for tumors located near sensitive organs.
• Better Outcomes: Allows for higher doses to the tumor, improving the chance of local control.

IMRT is commonly used to treat cancers including:

• Head and neck cancers
• Prostate cancer
• Breast cancer
• Brain tumors
• Gastrointestinal cancers
• Thoracic cancers

• Consultation: Your oncologist evaluates your condition and recommends IMRT if appropriate.
• Planning: Advanced imaging is performed to map the tumor and surrounding tissues.
• Simulation: A treatment plan is created using computer software to optimize dose distribution.
• Delivery: Radiation is administered over multiple sessions, typically 5 days a week, tailored to your personalized plan.
• Follow-up: Regular monitoring ensures the effectiveness of treatment and manages any side effects.
