external beam radiation therapy (ebrt)

What Are the Different Techniques of EBRT?

Several advanced techniques enhance the precision and effectiveness of EBRT:
3D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT): Uses imaging to shape the radiation beams to the contour of the tumor.
Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): Allows varying intensities of radiation to different parts of the tumor.
Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT): Uses imaging during treatment to improve accuracy.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): Delivers very high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumors.
Proton Beam Therapy: Uses protons instead of X-rays for more precise targeting.
