Multidisciplinary approach
We have established:
S Chemoradiation as the conventional nonsurgical treatment for esophageal cancer.
S Higher doses of radiation therapy do not offer a loco/regional control or survival advantage, Controversial?!?!
S Preoperative Chemoradiation followed by surgery has been found to be beneficial for patients with resectable esophageal cancer.

Supportive Services during RT • Assess tolerability of RT
before SIM • Avoid treatment
interruptions or dose reductions
• Manage acute toxicities • Catch it before it becomes an
issue! • It takes a Team!
