Treatments
At Clínica de Radioterapia de Occidente (Western Radiation Therapy Clinic), we use state-of-the-art techniques to treat cancer with exceptional precision and safety.
Each treatment is carefully tailored to the patient’s diagnosis, with the goal of controlling the tumor while protecting healthy tissue as much as possible.
IMRT Radiation Therapy (Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy)
IMRT is an advanced form of 3D radiation therapy that uses beams whose intensity can be adjusted as they are directed toward the tumor.
This allows the treatment to precisely conform to the shape and size of the cancer, achieving an even dose distribution while minimizing exposure to healthy tissue.
IMRT is especially useful for complex tumors or those located near sensitive organs, such as head and neck, prostate, or pelvic cancers, where a high level of precision is required.
3D Conformal Radiation Therapy
3D conformal radiation therapy uses medical imaging (primarily CT scans) to create a three-dimensional model of the tumor and shape the radiation beams to match its exact contour.
This makes the treatment safer and more precise than conventional radiation therapy by concentrating the dose only on the targeted area.
Currently, it is most often used for less complex tumors or cases that do not require highly modulated techniques — such as certain breast, prostate, or peripheral lung cancers..
All radiation therapy techniques — VMAT, IMRT, 3D, and SRS/SBRT — are safe and effective. The choice of technology depends on the type and location of the tumor, as well as each patient’s individual medical evaluation. Our team carefully selects the most appropriate technique for every patient, always ensuring the best balance between precision and well-being.
At Clínica de Radioterapia de Occidente (Western Radiation Therapy Clinic), we collaborate with a wide network of national and international insurance carriers, giving our patients easier access to their treatment.
We also assist patients in coordinating with their insurance providers, so their procedures can be completed more quickly and without unnecessary complications.
