Radiation therapy is one of the most common treatment options for cancer, using powerful beams of energy to target and kill cancer cells. At Orlando Health Cancer Institute – St. Petersburg, we offer Varian TrueBeam, which uses advanced imaging to create a customized treatment plan tailored to your body and tumor. TrueBeam targets cancer anywhere in the body -- including lung, breast, prostate, head and neck -- with powerful, accurate doses that reduce your treatment time.
In many instances, tumor removal is a recommended element of cancer treatment plans. Our team uses the latest surgical treatment techniques – including minimally invasive robotic procedures. Our specialties include breast care, head and neck cancers, endocrine conditions and thoracic cancers.
Many tumors, even after surgery, are treated with potent medications, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapy. These treatments are designed to attack rapidly dividing cells, including cancer cells.
