Dr. Wynn’s More Precise and Aggressive Treatment Approach

More precise radiation therapy has allowed doctors like Wynn to treat diseases such as pleural mesothelioma more effectively, taking a more aggressive approach.

The new MRI-guided approach will allow him to locate, target and track tumors as they move, delivering higher-dose therapy, requiring fewer sessions, while sparing healthy tissue.

“We can’t catch all cancers early, but we have techniques now that allow us to address later-stage cancers in a way we never have before,” he said. “To have MRI guidance is truly a game changer.”

He continually stresses the importance of multidisciplinary care, working closely with medical oncologists and thoracic surgeons to personalize treatment for each patient.
