Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT).

St. Joseph Hospital remains at the forefront of medical innovation with intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT), one of the most advanced forms of radiation therapy available in the United States. IORT delivers highly targeted electron beams of radiation directly to a tumor site during surgery. In addition to improving patient outcomes, this direct application improves patient comfort and appearance by preserving healthy tissue surrounding the tumor and reducing the amount of radiation patients may need after surgery. For patients and their families, this means less stress and more time for healing.
