“Together with TMC Healthcare, we now offer the most advanced technologies currently available in diagnostic imaging, allowing us to expedite the process of developing a customized treatment plan for our patients.” said Andrew Orton, MD, ABCS’ director of Radiation Oncology.
For radiation oncology services, Dr. Orton explains: “We have invested heavily in acquiring the latest, top-of-the-line radiation equipment at both the Tucson and Green Valley clinics. Our radiosurgery platform, the Varian Edge®, delivers the highest dose rate in the industry, performs accuracy checks every 10ms to track a patient’s tumor in real time, and is manufactured to extremely precise tolerances. Together with a 6-degree of freedom robotic alignment couch and 4-D planning CT acquisition, this technology allows for extremely eloquent radiation delivery, including single treatment tumor ablation, treatment of disease encroaching on the spinal cord or brain, and even radiation re-treatments. Our practice is one of only a handful in the United States that offers this highly innovative technology, so we are extremely proud to be able to provide it for our cancer patients.”
