Greenville Mississippi Mesothelioma Treatment Options
Greenville, Mississippi residents may seek cancer treatment from the Alliance Cancer Center. This center specializes on radiation therapy treatments, including 3D conformal therapy, image guided radiation therapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy and external beam radiation therapy to treat all forms and stages of cancer. It uses the latest medical advances to provide pain-free and targeted treatment through a linear accelerator that generates high-energy X-ray beams. This device allows medical providers to use an imaging system that precisely targets cancerous cells. Radiation is delivered to the targeted area, destroying the tumor and minimizing exposure to radiation in surrounding healthy tissue. This technology allows patients to receive outpatient services that last only 15 minutes so that they can return to their normal lives after treatment.
Greenville Mississippi Military Veterans with Mesothelioma
Greenville Air Force Base was selected as a training center in 1940. It consisted of 140 buildings and 2,000 acres. It was activated only two months after construction began on the base. It was later closed in December 1966 and then redeveloped into the Mid-Delta Regional Airport.
Because this base was active during a time when asbestos use was not regulated, it is possible that Air Force members and civilian workers at the base could have been exposed to asbestos. Asbestos was often used to construct base housing and other buildings. Asbestos was also used in vehicle components, including brakes, gaskets and valves. It was used in aircraft as well.
Area veterans may seek treatment at the Greenville Community Based Outpatient Clinic.
