Patient Stories

I was confused by my possible options. My urologist seemed set on doing robotic surgery or cryo therapy.

My friends said I could do watchful waiting, IMRT or proton therapy.

I chose a seed implant!

Treatments And Technology

Space

Winter Park Cancer Center provides patients with some of the most advanced technologies available to treat cancer. Some of the cancer treatments and technologies available at Winter Park Cancer Center in Orlando include:

  • High Dose Rate Brachytherapy (HDR) – an innovative form of internal radiotherapy that places radioactive materials directly in contact with cancer tissues using catheters or wires, which are then removed when a curative dose has been delivered to the cancer. This comprehensive, aggressive approach to treatment ensures the maximum radiation dose is given where you need it most, while sparing the healthy surrounding tissue.

  • Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) - A radiation treatment guided by imaging equipment, such as CT, ultrasound or X-rays, taken in the treatment room just before radiation is given. During IGRT, the images are used as a final check to ensure accurate placement of the radiation treatment.

  • Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) – a sophisticated type of external beam radiotherapy which allows delivery of precisely targeted radiation beams to tumors, while sparing the surrounding healthy organs and tissues.

  • MammoSite® Radiation Therapy System – a highly targeted procedure performed after a lumpectomy that uses a catheter (or catheters) to insert a radiation seed directly into the breast for a few minutes, twice a day for five days. After each treatment, the seed is removed and no radiation remains in the breast between treatments.

  • MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging We recently have added MRI imaging for our oncologic patients. Using a Siemens Medical MAGNETOM Espree, the world’s only 1.5 Tesla Open Bore MRI. The wide bore size of this Open MRI scanner enables us to perform studies with patients in the treatment planning position. The open architecture of the system provides the highest level of patient comfort in the industry. Indeed, the majority of MRI examinations can be done with the patient’s head outside of the bore tunnel, lessening the feeling of claustrophobia so commonly seen with these studies.

  • Prostate Seed Implants – rice-sized “seeds” of radioactive material that are placed into a cancerous prostate. Seeds can be left in place permanently, as they give off radiation for a specific period of time (weeks or months), and do not need to be removed once the radiation is gone. Due to their high success rate, prostate seed implants are an alternative to radical surgery, and are one of the most popular radiation procedures in the United States.

  • Radiosurgery: The Winter Park Cancer Center has full capabilty for brain radiosurgery and body radiosurgery. Radiosurgery is a highly pecise form of radiotherapy that cauterizes the tumor in one to three treatments while sparing nearby structures.The result is highly effective in killing brain tumors, and cancers in the spine, liver and lung.

  • Three-Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D-CRT) – a sophisticated set of computer assisted tomography scans (CT or CAT scans) and/or magnetic resonance imaging scans (MR or MRI scans) that create detailed, three-dimensional representations of tumors and surrounding organs for precise delivery of radiation beams to the exact size and shape of the tumor.
