Pancreatic Cancer Treatment: 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy
Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy uses computed tomography (CT) planning to image and reconstruct the tumor and surrounding pancreatic tissue in three dimensions. Utilizing this innovative radiation technique, the experts at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) can shape multiple radiation beams exactly to the contour of the treatment area. Because the radiation beams are precisely focused, nearby normal tissue is usually spared.
