Tomotherapy for Prostate Cancer Treatment

Tomotherapy is a new technology that allows us to deliver radiation treatments with more precision. At Alta Bates Summit Medical Center we are able to use this precision and treat patients with cancer, specifically, patients with prostate cancer. By shaping the radiation beam around the prostate we are able to deliver the radiation precisely to the prostate and avoid important structures that surround the prostate. More precise treatments mean patients are able to get through their radiation treatments with minimal side affects. Alta Bates Summit and Tomotherapy, precisely what you need.
