IMRT adjusts the intensity of radiation beams to deliver a precise dose to the tumour while reducing radiation exposure to nearby healthy tissues.
IGRT uses imaging during treatment to verify tumour position and improve the accuracy of radiation delivery.
VMAT delivers modulated radiation while the treatment machine rotates around the patient, allowing efficient and highly conformal treatment.
3DCRT uses three-dimensional imaging to shape radiation beams according to the tumour and surrounding anatomy.
SRS delivers highly focused radiation to selected small and well-defined targets, particularly in the brain.
SRT delivers highly precise radiation over multiple treatment sessions for selected tumours.
Brachytherapy places a radiation source within or close to the tumour to deliver a concentrated local dose while limiting exposure to surrounding tissues.
Advanced radiotherapy for head and neck cancers aims to control the tumour while reducing radiation exposure to important nearby structures.
Breast radiotherapy may be used after breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy according to tumour stage and recurrence risk.
Radiotherapy and brachytherapy may be used for selected gynaecological cancers depending on disease type and stage.
Radiotherapy may form part of multidisciplinary treatment for selected gastrointestinal cancers.
Brain tumour radiotherapy may use conventional or stereotactic techniques depending on tumour type, size and location.
Radiation therapy may be used as part of definitive, combined or palliative treatment for selected lung cancers.
Precision radiotherapy may be used in selected prostate cancers depending on disease stage and individual treatment planning.
Radiotherapy may be used for selected rectal and colorectal cancers as part of multidisciplinary treatment.
Total Body Irradiation is a specialised radiation technique that may be used as part of conditioning before selected bone marrow transplants.
