Pancreatic Cancer Treatment: Radiation Therapy
Even if a tumor is inoperable, CTCA believes pancreatic cancer patients deserve as many treatment options as possible. Our cancer experts offer innovative radiation therapies alone, or in combination with surgery and/or chemotherapy, to treat pancreatic cancer and/or relieve its symptoms.
Since the pancreas is hidden behind other organs, such as the stomach, small intestine, liver, gallbladder, spleen, and bile ducts, radiation treatment requires accuracy and precision. Our radiation oncologists offer the latest and most targeted radiation treatments for pancreatic cancer.
With advanced radiation therapy delivery systems, our radiation oncologists are better able to target difficult-to-reach tumors in the pancreas. In addition, using innovative technologies, our radiation oncologists can direct higher radiation doses at pancreatic cancer cells, while reducing exposure to normal, healthy pancreatic tissue.
