Treatment typically begins with a planning session (simulation) that includes a CT scan to map the treatment area precisely. Daily treatment sessions follow, often Monday through Friday, and usually take only a few minutes each. The total length of a course depends on the diagnosis and treatment type and is discussed in detail during planning.

Side effects depend on the area being treated, but commonly include localized skin changes and fatigue. Our team monitors you closely throughout treatment and provides guidance to manage any side effects that come up, so you’re never navigating them alone.

These are precision radiation delivery systems. CyberKnife, SBRT, and SRS deliver highly focused, high-dose radiation with sub-millimeter accuracy, often in just a few sessions. IMRT and IGRT shape and continuously verify the radiation dose to protect surrounding healthy tissue. Which technology is used depends on your specific diagnosis and treatment plan.

Many patients are referred by a primary care physician, medical or surgical oncologist. However, a referral isn’t required — second opinions and self-referred consultations are welcome. Call our office at (732) 530-2468 to check what your insurance requires and to get scheduled.
