Radiation therapy, one of the three major cancer treatments along with surgery and chemotherapy, has been developing at a very rapid pace for over 100 years since it was first applied to cancer treatment in the 1890s. As a result of continuous development of radiation therapy technology to precisely strike only cancerous tissue and minimize damage to normal tissue around cancerous tissue, 3D stereoscopic radiation therapy, intensity-modulated radiation therapy, 4-dimensional image-guided radiation therapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery High-precision radiation therapy techniques such as these are currently being practiced in many clinical settings.

Tomotherapy, possessed by the Radiation Oncology Department of Kyunghee Medical Center, is one of the most advanced radiation therapy equipment that combines a diagnostic CT and a therapeutic radiation generator, and is the most effective and safest high-precision radiation therapy. The Department of Radiation Oncology at Kyunghee Medical Center has successfully cured many cancer patients by performing hundreds of treatments and surgeries since the introduction of Tomotherapy in 2008 based on the passion and experience of excellent medical staff.

Major areas of treatment include lung cancer, head and neck cancer, breast cancer, gynecological cancer, colorectal cancer, genitourinary cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic and biliary tract cancer, and esophageal cancer.

Tomo Therapy Center is leading the development of medical technology by disseminating the know-how unique to Kyunghee Medical Center to medical staff around the world by analyzing years of treatment experience and results and presenting them through conferences and academic papers.

The Department of Radiation Oncology, Kyunghee Medical Center, which possesses skilled medical staff who constantly pursue perfection, and Tomotherapy, a state-of-the-art treatment equipment that can most effectively implement all existing high-precision radiation therapy techniques, will do its best to present new hope to cancer patients in the future. I'll do it.

TOMO THERAPY HI-ART

- It has all the functions of existing radiation therapy devices, such as IMRT, Cyberknife, and image guidance device, so you can maximize the results of treatment using only the strengths of each device.
- Using the MVCT built into Tomotherapy every day, it is possible to check whether the tumor site or the radiotherapy site is accurately aimed before and after radiation treatment.
- Simultaneous treatment is possible for cancers that are scattered in several places, regardless of the size, shape, or number of tumors.

LINAC–VARIAN

The linear accelerator is a device that generates X-rays by accelerating electrons linearly and irradiates the X-rays to the affected area to treat tumors. It is the centerpiece of the Department of Radiation Oncology.

CT SLMULATOR

It is a simulation therapy device that can obtain tomographic images and 3D image reconstruction compared to the existing simulation therapy devices that only show two-dimensional images. Tumor targeting is made possible using tomographic images, enabling much more accurate and precise treatment planning compared to the existing method that relied on the bone boundary for treatment.
In addition, since 4 images can be obtained at once with one rotation, the scanning time can be reduced to increase the convenience of the patient, and it is also a 4D CT scanning device that can directly observe the movement of internal organs.

2D SIMULATOR

- As a system in which the linear accelerator and geometric structure are matched, it is easy to observe the movement of organs and tissues through fluoroscopy.
-Beam can be positioned and adjusted to improve patient treatment planning and treatment efficiency.
- It is a system that supports high-definition images of 2D and 3D images and completely integrates complex treatment plans into one.
