Brain tumor treatments
To provide the best possible care for your unique condition, our specialists use high-quality treatment options, such as:
- Chemotherapy
- Radiation therapy
- Tumor removal surgery
Stereotactic radiosurgery
By performing this procedure, we can deliver targeted doses of radiation to the brain tumor without causing much damage to healthy tissue. These noninvasive, virtually painless treatments have no serious side effects. They are completed in a matter of hours in an outpatient setting.
Stereotactic radiosurgery is available at our HCA HealthONE Swedish hospital, where we provide a unique path for treating formerly inoperable tumors. After surgery, you are typically discharged within 12 hours and can return to your preoperative lifestyle the following day. This procedure is covered by Medicare and most insurance providers.
Cancer clinical trials
We offer community-based clinical trials for many brain cancers.
Our team uses clinical trials, or research studies, to answer key medical questions and to find better ways to treat diseases. These trials help us evaluate the safety and effectiveness of new or investigational drugs, combinations of new or existing drugs and drug delivery methods.
