Liver metastases are a potential complication of many types of cancer. Stereotactic radiation therapy allows for highly precise targeting of tumor lesions while maximally preserving the surrounding healthy tissues.
A few days ago, specialists from the Erebuni Radiotherapy Center participated in the international professional training course Varian Advanced Techniques Clinical School – SRT, held at the Gemelli University Hospital in Rome.
Radiation therapy plays an important role in the treatment of rectal cancer, especially when the tumor is located in the lower part of the rectum. It can help preserve the organ and allow the patient to avoid the need for a colostomy.

The lungs are organs that are constantly in motion, which means that the tumor also moves during breathing. To ensure precise targeting of the tumor with radiation, 4D CT and PET/CT scans are performed.
Acoustic neuroma is a benign tumor that develops from the vestibulocochlear nerve and typically grows slowly. Despite its benign nature, it can significantly affect a patient’s quality of life.
One of the most effective methods for treating eyelid tumors is brachytherapy — a form of contact radiation therapy that allows radiation to be delivered directly to the tumor while preserving healthy tissues and the patient’s vision as much as possible.
Salvage radiotherapy can help achieve local disease control and significantly reduce the risk of further cancer progression.
Erebuni Radiotherapy Center recently participated in the Global Medical Tourism Forum, organized by the Tourism Committee of the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Armenia in cooperation with the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UN Tourism).
PET/CT, or Positron Emission Tomography combined with Computed Tomography, is a radionuclide diagnostic method that allows doctors to assess the functional characteristics of the body, metabolic activity in internal organs, pathological changes
At the Erebuni Radiotherapy Center, PSMA PET/CT is performed using the radioactive isotope Gallium-68.
The Erebuni Radiotherapy Center and Nairi Medical Center jointly carried out a комплексный treatment approach: a 3 cm metastatic brain lesion, accompanied by severe headaches, was first treated with high-dose radiation and then surgically removed 24 hours later.
