Technical Advantages
The Department of Radiation Oncology specializes in the precise diagnosis and treatment of head and neck tumors (including nasopharyngeal carcinoma). Technical advantages are as follows:
-
Each patient undergoes a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach to develop standardized and professional treatment plans based on evidence-based medicine -
Precise radiotherapy techniques, including IMRT, IGRT, VMAT, and respiratory gating technology, and can be based on specific molecular targeted probe examinations (such as PSMA PET-CT), making irradiation more precise, thereby both improving tumor treatment efficacy and effectively reducing side effects;

The latest generation GE Discovery MI PET/CT and NM/CT 870 SPECT/CT systems in China: Achieve full coverage from molecular imaging diagnosis of genitourinary system tumors to routine split renal function (GFR) evaluation. In particular, the application of the novel molecular probe 18F-PSMA (Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen ligand) provides new means for early diagnosis, initial staging, biochemical recurrence and efficacy evaluation of prostate cancer, as well as assessment of tumor heterogeneity and biological behavior.

The world's most advanced Hitachi integrated proton and heavy ion radiotherapy system: Utilizes internationally leading proton and heavy ion technologies. Proton and heavy ion therapy features a unique "Bragg Peak" effect, enabling precise delivery of radiation energy to the tumor tissue, significantly minimizing damage to normal tissues. It is particularly suitable for pediatric tumors, head and neck tumors, brain tumors, hepatobiliary and pancreatic tumors, and patients with poor radiotherapy tolerance.

Varian TrueBEAM and HyperArc: The Varian TrueBEAM linear accelerator incorporates HyperArc technology, enabling ultra-high precision stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT/SRS). HyperArc technology can precisely treat multiple tumor lesions simultaneously within an extremely short time, especially suitable for patients with brain metastases, significantly improving tumor control rates, reducing treatment sessions, and enhancing the patient treatment experience.

4
Adaptive Radiotherapy (Adaptive RT): Employs cutting-edge adaptive radiotherapy technology, capable of adjusting the treatment plan in real-time throughout the radiotherapy process based on changes in tumor morphology and position. Through real-time imaging monitoring and precise dynamic adjustments, it effectively enhances treatment efficacy, maximizes protection of normal tissues, and ensures each patient receives the most precise and safest treatment experience."

From Despair to Survival: A Late-Stage Cancer Patient's Life-and-Death Breakthrough

Patient Profile
Ms. Li, a 60-year-old female
-
Chief Complaints
After being diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2017, she underwent surgery and chemotherapy, but the disease still progressed. The metastatic lesions in the neck and chest had progressed to nearly 10cm. The large mass was accompanied by copious purulent discharge, and her right arm showed severe edema due to tumor compression.
-
Treatment Process
The HeYou Comprehensive Cancer Center promptly organized a multidisciplinary consultation, led by Vice President Lu Jiade. The team, headed by the Department of Radiation Oncology and including experts from Medical Oncology, Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Dermatology, Interventional Radiology, Imaging, Nuclear Medicine, Wound Ostomy Clinic, and Nutrition, developed a personalized treatment plan based on Ms. Li's treatment history over the past five years: radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy to precisely and comprehensively eliminate the tumor, while simultaneously using symptomatic medication and wound care to significantly improve the patient's quality of life. During the treatment process, the oncology team flexibly adjusted the radiotherapy field based on tumor shrinkage, and the nursing team meticulously performed debridement, gradually removing necrotic tissue.
-
Therapeutic Outcomes
The metastatic lesions in the neck and chest have completely disappeared, and multiple tumor markers have returned to normal levels.
