Intensity Modulated Radio Therapy (IMRT)

Intensity Modulated Radio Therapy (IMRT)
IMRT is an advanced mode of high-precision radiotherapy that uses computer-controlled linear accelerators to deliver precise radiation doses to a malignant tumor or specific areas within the tumor.

Why choose Manipal Hospitals

This superior technology uses multiple radiation beams of non-uniform intensities. The beams are modulated to the required intensity maps to deliver highly conformal doses of radiation to the treatment target areas of the tumour malignancy, sparing the normal tissue around it.
