Post [News Feed] Jefferson Neurosurgeons, Radiation Oncologists Wrap Radiation Around Spine For Cancer Pain Relief
Using the most advanced radiation technology available in the region, neurosurgeons and radiation oncologists at the Jefferson Hospital for Neuroscience in Philadelphia have for the first time wrapped beams of radiation around a patient's spine, relieving pain from cancerous tumors while avoiding the spinal cord. The technology -- shaped beam surgery -- relies on sophisticated computers to tailor the shape and intensity of radiation to fit the size and shape of the tumor while sparing healthy tissue.
