Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3-D)

Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) uses sophisticated computers, along with CT and MRI scans, to create detailed, three-dimensional representations of a tumor and surrounding organs.

Radiation oncologists shape the radiation beams precisely to the size and shape of the tumor, reducing exposure to surrounding tissues.
