The nursing home has a highly specialized radiotherapy service from both a clinical and technological standpoint, available to both inpatients and outpatients.
The service is equipped with the linear accelerator Elekta Versa HD capable of offering conventional therapies to treat a wide range of indications while simultaneously allowing for complex treatments that require extremely high precision and the use of the most advanced techniques.
Highly innovative treatments:
IGRT – Radiotherapy guided by images
Before and during treatment, images are acquired that allow monitoring of the patient's position and the volume to be treated, verifying the correct delivery of therapy and directing the radiation with greater precision.
IMRT and VMAT – Radiotherapy with modulated intensity
Techniques that allow the radiation beam to be modulated, adapting it to the shape and position of the target. VMAT also makes it possible to deliver the treatment while the machine rotates, favoring a precise dose distribution.
Radiosurgery
High-precision technique that allows a high dose of radiation to be concentrated on a well-defined target, particularly in certain intracranial pathologies.
Stereotactic radiotherapy with VMAT technique
It combines stereotactic radiotherapy with VMAT technology: the linear accelerator rotates around the patient, continuously modulating the intensity and shape of the beam, concentrating the dose on the area to be treated and limiting the exposure of surrounding healthy tissues.
The Versa HD is a state-of-the-art linear accelerator designed to perform both conventional radiotherapy treatments and more complex procedures that require a high level of precision. The integrated technology allows to:
