RapidArc is a state-of-the-art technology that can achieve a high cure rate for several
cancers 
. At Cancer Care of Western New York:
- We have more experience with RapidArc Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) than any other facility in the area.
- Our collective experience rivals many major cancer centers around the world.
RapidArc is an advanced form of IMRT. It allows the radiation to better conform to the complex shape of a tumor. This means more radiation goes to the tumor and less to the healthy tissue surrounding it, so it reduces your chances of having side effects.
RapidArc is also fast, providing a complete treatment in less than two minutes in many cases. That is because the entire tumor receives the radiation dose with just one single rotation of the machine around the patient.
