Radiation therapy for colorectal cancer clinics

Radiation therapy for rectal cancer at Anadolu is carried out by specialists from the Department of Radiation Oncology. The procedure is performed prior to operation in order to reduce the tumor.

After surgical treatment, radiation destroys the remaining cancer cells. Anadolu radiologists use TrueBeam linear accelerator. It affects the tumor with 0,5 mm accuracy and does not damage healthy tissues. Radiotherapy is carried out in sessions. Complete course can take up to 2 months to finish.

In Sourasky Clinic, radiation therapy for rectal cancer is performed at the Institute of Radiology. Oncologists use TrueBeam STx linear accelerator with the Novalis system. The device evaluates the size of the tumor and selects a radiation dose. It destroys tumor cells without any serious damage to healthy tissues.

In Sourasky Clinic, physicians conduct radiotherapy using TrueBeam STx with modulated frequency (IMRT). It is applied if the tumor is located in hard-to-reach areas of the intestine. The system determines the dosage of radiation for rectal cancer management depending on the tumor shape and location. Full radiotherapy course can take up to 8 weeks, but the hospitalization is not required.

In Liv Hospital oncologists carry out radiation treatment for rectal cancer in the Oncology Department. Radiologists utilize IMRT (Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy) and IORT (Intraoperative radiation therapy) devices to treat tumors.

IMRT is a modulated radiation. The system automatically determines the size and shape of the tumor, sets rays direction and intensity. It allows oncologists destroying formations in unreachable places without damaging healthy tissues.

IORT is a radiation for anal cancer during surgery. It is performed after tumor removal to destroy remaining cancer cells. To do this, a surgeon swipes resection area with a special sensor. Radiotherapy course lasts for 4-8 weeks. Patients don’t need to stay in the Hospital all the time.

At Teknon Medical Center radiation for rectal cancer is applied by an oncologist at the Oncological Institute. Physicians use IMRT technique to manage the disease.

A linear accelerator is used. It emits rays that only affect tumor tissues and do not damage healthy cells. A radiologist sets the necessary intensity of irradiation, depending on the size and shape of the tumor. Radiotherapy is carried out in courses, in an outpatient regime. Full course may last 4-8 weeks.

In Solingen Clinic radiation for rectal cancer treatment is applied in the Oncology Department.

During the procedure Elekta system is used. It comes with a special visualization system. A radiologist determines the size of the tumor setting the direction and intensity of the emitter.

Radiation therapy for rectal cancer affects only malignant cells and does not damage healthy tissues. The procedure is painless. Radiotherapy is carried out for outpatients over 3-8 weeks period.

Radiation treatment for rectal cancer at Nordwest is carried out with Novalis TrueBeam STx linear accelerator. The device visualizes the tumor and tracks its movement during breathing. This allows to accurately irradiate the tumor dealing minimum collateral damage.

Radiotherapies are given in courses. Full course can take up to 2 months to complete.
