Radiation Oncology at VA: https://www.cancer.va.gov/radiation-oncology-at-va.html
Radiation oncologists specialize in using high-energy radiation to kill or damage cancer cells and either destroy tumors or control their growth. Our doctors sometimes use radiation therapy in combination with surgery, chemotherapy, or other cancer treatments. The radiation therapy you receive will depend on cancer type, tumor size and location, and your general health. Our services include:
- Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) uses computers to deliver precise radiation doses that match the 3D shape of your tumor.
- Intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) uses targeted radiation to treat a brain tumor or lesion while minimizing radiation effects on healthy brain tissue.
- Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) uses precisely focused radiation to treat tumors in your lungs, spine, liver, lymph nodes, or other soft tissues.
- Low-dose rate definitive and salvage brachytherapy, which uses low doses of radiation to treat prostate cancer
- Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) uses detailed images to help focus radiation on affected areas, improve outcomes, and shorten treatment.
