What is Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)?
Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) is an advanced radiation therapy technique that uses imaging technology during treatment sessions to precisely target and deliver radiation to cancerous tumors. It integrates imaging tools with radiation therapy to enhance accuracy and effectiveness.
Mechanism of Action:
- IGRT utilizes various imaging modalities such as CT scans, X-rays, or MRIs to visualize the tumor’s exact location and surrounding structures in real-time.
- It allows for adjustments in the radiation beam’s direction and intensity based on the tumor’s position during each treatment session.

Hormone therapy is considered a systemic treatment because the hormones they target circulate in the body. The drugs used in hormone therapy travel throughout the body to target and find the hormones. This makes it different from treatments that affect only a certain part of body, like most types of surgery and radiation therapy.
