The Upstate Cancer Center provides advanced cancer-fighting
technology, including the third Vero SBRT installed in the nation.
Skilled radiation oncologists, like Upstate's Anna Shapiro MD,
use the Vero to locate, target and treat tumors in real time.
The Vero provides a 3-D view then precisely delivers radiation
through beams concentrated on the tumor, sparing healthy cells
and tissues. The Vero also can be used for tumors that have
spread or that are hard to reach with surgery.
Accredited by the American College of Surgeons' Commission
on Cancer, Upstate connects patients to the care, education,
and research resources of the region's only medical university.
