Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)


Image Guid­ed Radi­a­tion Ther­a­py (IGRT) is a radi­a­tion treat­ment that is guid­ed by imag­ing equip­ment, such as CT or X‑rays. Through­out the course of your treat­ment, tumors can shrink or move. Thanks to this tech­nol­o­gy, IGRT allows physi­cians to locate and track the tumor at the time of treat­ment result­ing in more pre­cise treat­ment and lim­it­ed radi­a­tion expo­sure to healthy tissue.
