Helping You Heal With Colon Cancer Treatment Options
Chemotherapy can play a role in your colon treatment to stop cancer cells from growing and dividing through the use of specialized medications. Additionally, your physician may recommend combining drug therapy with other treatment options, like radiation and surgery.
During radiation therapy, your care team uses high-energy X-rays to destroy cancerous cells. Using sophisticated radiation technology, we can target colorectal cancer tumors with amazing precision, easing your pain. Depending on your diagnosis, your dedicated team may recommend radiation alone, but in many cases, we combine it with surgery, chemotherapy and other treatments.
Oncology surgery is the most common treatment for colon cancer, and here, you’ll be in the capable hands of recognized leaders in digestive cancer care. With a minimally invasive surgical procedure, our oncology surgeons can remove the cancerous part of your colon or rectum.
The AdventHealth Cancer Institute Shawnee Mission will soon offer MRI-guided radiation therapy. This leading-edge technology is capable of treating tumors in multiple locations, including those in hard-to-see soft tissues. Learn more about this exciting technology and how it can be used in treating colon cancer.
