Intraoperative Radiation Therapy
Intraoperative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOERT) is a technique allowing for selective irradiation during cancer surgery of anatomical volumes identified as unresectable tumors, postoperative residual tumor bed or high risk tissues. It is delivered in a single dose of radiation with an electron beam. Surrounding tissues can be displaced or shielded during the procedure, allowing a more precise definition of the irradiation volume.
