Leading Technologies
The Falck Cancer Center invests in new technologies to improve treatment and reduce side effects.
The Varian TrueBeam Linear Accelator is a breakthrough technology in radiation therapy delivery and enables us to provide advanced noninvasive treatments to a greater range of patients. Clinicians are able to tailor cancer treatments that are best for the patient's condition using less radiation, delivered more accurately in less time. Treatment techniques include:
- Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) enables more precise aim of the radiation beam, maximizing the dose to tumors while minimizing the dose to surrounding tissues.
- Intensity modulated radiation Therapy (IMRT) allows the intensity of the radiation to be adjusted during treatment to conform to the specified tumor volume.
- Stereostatic body radiotherapy (SBRT) Targeted radiation to tumors outside the central nervous system delivered with millimeter precision.
Comprehensive, Patient-Centered Care
A select team of dedicated professionals provide surgical, medical and radiation oncology, nutritional counseling, exercise physiology, spiritual counseling, medical social work, financial counseling, psychological support, complementary therapies and more.
