Increasing the overall survival for early-stage breast cancer

Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) for breast cancer using ZEISS technology enables a precise treatment which can reduce the risk of recurrence, increase the overall survival and reduce side-effects such as pain and cosmesis compared to conventional radiotherapy treatments.1,2,3,4

The benefits of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) using ZEISS technology

ZEISS Solution for radiotherapy

IORT enables a targeted, risk-adapted and interdisciplinary treatment of various tumors, such as neuro tumors or breast cancer but also other indications. By using low energy x-rays IORT can be given with a high dose, precisely into the tumor or directly after resection to the tumor bed.

ZEISS INTRABEAM 600: Melding two worlds into one benefit.

Combining surgery and radiotherapy, ZEISS INTRABEAM 600 enables an individual IORT treatment ensuring that skin and deeper structures are protected and a shorter duration of the radiation therapy compared to external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). This can also reduce associated side effects and enhances treatment comfort for the patient – a key element in increased quality of life.1
