Introduction
Welcome to Neumark Surgery, a leading destination for quality medical care specializing in lung cancer treatments and cures. Our team of highly-skilled doctors and plastic surgeons is committed to providing personalized and comprehensive treatment options to patients.
Understanding Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is a serious disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the lungs, often leading to the formation of tumors. As the disease progresses, it can spread to other parts of the body, making early detection and effective treatment crucial.
Innovative Treatment Approaches
At Neumark Surgery, we are at the forefront of innovative treatment approaches for lung cancer. Our team combines cutting-edge technology with years of expertise to deliver the most advanced and effective treatments available in the field of medical oncology and surgery.
1. Surgical Options
Our team of skilled surgeons specializes in various surgical techniques for lung cancer, including:
- Lobectomy: The removal of the affected lobe of the lung.
- Pneumonectomy: The removal of the entire lung.
- Segmentectomy: The removal of a segment of the lung containing the tumor.
2. Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy utilizes high-energy radiation to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors. At Neumark Surgery, we employ state-of-the-art radiation therapy techniques, such as:
- External Beam Radiation: Precisely targeting the tumor from outside the body.
- Brachytherapy: Placing radioactive materials near the tumor site to deliver focused radiation.
- Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): Delivering high doses of radiation to tumors in a shorter time span.
3. Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy uses drugs to kill cancer cells throughout the body. It is a systemic treatment approach that can be used before or after surgery, or as the primary treatment for patients with advanced lung cancer. At Neumark Surgery, we customize chemotherapy regimens based on each patient's specific needs.
4. Targeted Therapy
Targeted therapy is a form of treatment that specifically targets cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy cells. Our team utilizes advanced genetic testing to identify specific genetic mutations in lung cancer cells, allowing us to tailor treatment plans with targeted therapies designed to inhibit the growth and spread of cancer.
5. Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy boosts the body's immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. Our team stays up-to-date with the latest advancements in immunotherapy for lung cancer, providing patients with access to novel immunotherapeutic drugs and clinical trials.
