Dr Evelyn Martínez Pérez speaks to ecancer about the use of IORT at L'Hospitalet de Llobregat.

She says that IORT treatment for early breast cancer started in December 2014 at her institute, making the centre a pioneer among its co-centres.

Around 300 patients have been treated with IORT so far, and the institute focuses solely on cancer care, working closely with a local hospital.

A multidisciplinary approach ensures optimal treatment decisions, utilising 50 KV photon energy and IORT for targeted radiation.

Dr Pérez highlights the benefits of IORT, emphasising its precision and minimal side effects.
