Fargo, North Dakota – In the F-M metro area, a novel approach to treating several forms of skin cancer is currently in use.
A treatment approach known as Image-Guided Superficial Radiotherapy (Image-Guided SRT) is now available at the Fargo Center for Dermatology.
Many various types of skin malignancies, including those that have spread to soft tissues like the ears, eyes, nose, lips, and shins, can be treated using this non-surgical approach.
According to a study that was peer-reviewed and published in the Oncology and Therapy journal, the method of treatment has a 99.3% cure rate, making it just as effective as standard surgical techniques.
“I am particularly pleased to bring Image-Guided SRT to the State, offering this remarkable non-surgical option for common skin cancer to our population, “said Rachel Ness, M.D., founder of Fargo Center for Dermatology.
