A knowledgeable staff or Dermatologist(s), Radiation Therapist, support staff and billing experts are all in place to assist you during treatment.
Unlike traditional radiation that delivers massive amounts of energy that penetrates deep into the body and can cause severe skin reactions, SRT utilizes a small portable device that delivers very low energy just below the surface of the skin. It treats only skin cancers. Because SRT uses low energy radiotherapy, skin reactions are typically mild and very small.
Keloids are readily controlled when treated with SRT in one to five fractions (treatments) immediately following excision over one to two weeks.
