Perfection Radiation Treatment for Brain Cancer

Cancer doctors at Cleveland Clinic are treating the brain tumors through a new radiation treatment called perfection. This procedure involves delivering a high dose of radiation to a small target. In this case, 192 radiation beams are pointed around the head towards the tumor. Each beam carries a low dose of radiation but where they intersect the dose is high enough to kill the tumor without damaging healthy tissue around it.

This radiation treatment is available for a variety of brain tumors allowing treatment anywhere within the brain and limits the amount of radiation to the patient and medical worker. It also allows greater flexibility of how specialists can sculpt or shape the radiation beam.
