Radiation Therapy

Our radiation oncologists use the latest technology to deliver cutting-edge cancer treatment. Listen to Dr. Bernard Eden describe how we use different types of radiation therapy to treat cancer.

Radiation therapy uses targeted energy to kill cancer cells, shrink tumors, and provide relief of certain cancer-related symptoms. At Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), we use highly targeted radiation therapies to kill tumors. By focusing the radiation directly on the tumor, these therapies minimize the risk of common side effects associated with radiation treatment.

Why We're Different

Typical radiation therapy can be damaging to the body. Our radiation oncologists use image guidance before and during radiation treatment to deliver maximum radiation doses to tumors, with less impact on healthy tissues and organs.

Depending on your individual needs, we may combine radiation with other innovative treatments, like chemotherapy, hormone therapy and immunotherapy, to fight against the growth of new cancer cells.
