Stomach Cancer Treatment: Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy is used by the experts at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) for stomach cancer treatment, as well as for the relief of associated stomach cancer symptoms. Radiation therapy may be recommended as your sole form of conventional stomach cancer treatment, or it may also be used in combination with surgery or chemotherapy.
An advantage of utilizing radiation therapy in a treatment plan for stomach cancer is that our radiation oncologists are able to target tumors in almost any location in the body. New advances in radiation therapy continue to evolve, making it possible for expert physicians at CTCA to deliver even higher doses of radiation to your stomach cancer cells, while sparing surrounding, normal tissue as much as possible.
Depending on your treatment needs, External Beam Radiation Therapy and TomoTherapy® are two examples of advanced radiation treatment CTCA physicians may use in your fight against stomach cancer.
