Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) at Vinmec Central Park is an advanced method that allows the treatment of complex head and neck cancer cases with high efficiency, minimizing unwanted side effects.

Radiation therapy is one of the main methods of cancer treatment, but many side effects of radiation therapy often cause concern for patients and reduce quality of life. High-tech radiotherapy technologies can significantly reduce unwanted side effects, reduce pain so that patients can easily pass treatment and conquer disease. Vinmec is one of the first hospitals in Vietnam to deploy these special radiotherapy technologies.

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy, also known as dose-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT): is a radiotherapy technique in which the radiation beam is modulated so that the intensity at points within the field of view is not uniform. using a compensator or leaf pairs of a multileaf collimator (MLC),...

SBRT is a high-tech radiotherapy technique that uses multiple beams to deliver a very high radiation dose to the target tissue and rapidly reduce the dose to adjacent tissues. This is a very high precision radiotherapy technique from positioning and immobilization of the patient, mechanics to dose delivery. A high dose of radiation (the “surgical” dose is usually ≥ 5Gy/partial dose) will be delivered to the patient externally from the irradiator into the body. The duration of treatment is shortened using less therapeutic doses, usually only 1 to 5 therapeutic doses.

Radiation therapy is a method of using high-energy ionizing radiation beams to destroy cancer cells, while maximizing the protection of healthy tissue around the tumor site and is one of the best treatment methods. for head and neck cancer. External radiation therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses an accelerator system to direct radiation beams to the tumor site, so when receiving external radiation, you do not need to be isolated after treatment.

In 2015, an estimated 93,000 Americans were diagnosed with colon cancer. Rectal - anal canal cancer ranks 3rd in both men and women. Of these, 39,610 people will be diagnosed with rectal cancer.
