Dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer, the third leading cause of cancer deaths in Indiana, the center features the latest technology, such as megavoltage cone beam imaging for more precise targeting of tumors, and it has piloted selective internal radiation therapy for colon cancer that has spread to the liver.
External-beam radiation therapy, which involves using radiation that is emitted from a machine outside the body is more common than internal radiation therapy, in which a radioactive material is implanted in the body near the tumor or cancer cells.
