Radiation Treatment for Skin Cancer in Media, PA

If you’ve recently been diagnosed with a non-melanoma skin cancer such as basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, you’re not alone — and you have effective, non-surgical options close to home.

How It Works

During SRT, focused beams of low-dose radiation are delivered directly to the cancerous area. These X-rays damage the DNA of the abnormal cells, preventing them from growing or dividing. Over time, the body naturally replaces them with healthy new skin cells.

The treatment is:

• Painless and incision-free – No cutting, stitches, or anesthesia required.

• Precise and localized – Surrounding healthy tissue remains unharmed.

• Cosmetically favorable – Minimal risk of scarring or discoloration.

• Convenient – Treatments take just a few minutes and are performed right in our Media, PA office.

For many patients, SRT offers a safe and effective alternative to Mohs surgery — especially when surgery is not advisable due to age, health conditions, or the location of the tumor (such as the nose, ears, eyelids, or neck).

Radiation Treatment: Image-Guided Precision

This advanced system incorporates high-frequency ultrasound imaging, allowing our dermatologists to visualize the tumor beneath the surface of the skin before, during, and after treatment. This real-time imaging ensures that radiation targets only cancerous tissue, improving accuracy and treatment planning.

With IG-SRT, our physicians can:

• Determine the exact size and depth of the lesion.

• Customize each treatment dose and angle.

• Monitor healing and adjust therapy for optimal outcomes.
