3 DIMENSIONAL CONFORMAL RADIATION THERAPY (3DCRT)

3 Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy (3DCRT)

3 Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy (3DCRT) represents a sophisticated approach to delivering targeted radiation treatment. This technique utilizes computed tomography (CT) scans to meticulously plan and design radiation therapy. By defining the radiation target volumes and critical structures on CT images, 3DCRT ensures that radiation beams are precisely shaped to conform to the tumor’s contours.

This precision allows for the delivery of a focused radiation dose to the tumor while minimizing exposure to the surrounding healthy tissues. The result is a highly effective treatment with a reduced risk of damage to adjacent organs and structures.

3DCRT has demonstrated improved outcomes for various types of cancer, including brain cancer, head and neck cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer. By enhancing the accuracy of radiation delivery, 3DCRT plays a crucial role in optimizing treatment efficacy and patient safety.

Our team at Vydehi Cancer Center is dedicated to utilizing the latest advancements in radiation therapy to provide exceptional care and achieve the best possible outcomes for our patients.
