External beam radiation therapy [EBRT]

External beam radiation therapy [EBRT] is a type of radiation therapy that uses one or more beams to deliver high energy x-rays to a cancerous tumour.

Intensity modulated radiation therapy [IMRT]

Intensity modulated radiation therapy [IMRT] is high precision radiation therapy that delivers high dose radiation to cancerous tumours, while limiting impact on healthy surrounding tissue.

Image Guided Radiation Therapy [IGRT]

IGRT is a radiation therapy that utilises the most advanced imaging equipment and computer software.

Volumetric modulated arc therapy [VMAT]

Volumetric modulated arc therapy [VMAT] involves the use of external radiation therapy beams being directed in a series of arcs or angles to allow for greater access to a cancerous tumour.
