Hello. I'm Doctor Clayton Hess, founder of CureRays Radiation Medicine. Let me walk you through this page: Dupuytren's Contracture.

Caught early, Dupuytren's contracture can be slowed with DEEP-SRT™ — preserving hand function without surgery.

Here is what you'll find on this page.

What is Dupuytren's contracture? Dupuytren's contracture is a progressive condition in which the tissue under the skin of the palm thickens into nodules and cords, gradually pulling the fingers toward the palm.

DEEP-SRT™ for early disease. CureRays uses DEEP-SRT™ — Depth-Enabled, Epidermis-Protecting Superficial Radiation Therapy — to treat the nodules and cords while protecting the skin surface.

Who may benefit. People with early nodules or cords but limited or no finger contracture; Those wanting to slow progression and avoid or delay surgery; Patients with the related foot condition, Ledderhose disease.

Watch: Dupuytren's contracture explained. A patient-education walkthrough of Dupuytren's contracture — how the cords form, why treating early matters, and what radiation therapy does for it.

Here is what you can do next.
