The newest addition to our cancer-fighting arsenal: It's called TomoTherapy.
It's the world's most precise radiation therapy system for targeting and attacking cancer.
TomoTherapy can target a tumor more accurately, then attack the cancer with thousands of tiny, precisely aimed beamlets.
Then, it can retarget the cancer every single day during the course of treatment. And re-aim. And hit it again. And again.
Because it's more accurate, it provides more protection for surrounding healthy tissue.
And it does all this with lower radiation doses.
TomoTherapy gives Phoebe radiation oncologists a higher chance of killing the cancer with lower risk to the patient, as well as decreased side effects.
Best of all, the new technology boasts of a high cure rate.
It's only found at one cancer center in Georgia. Right here. At home.
