As a nationally recognized leader in patient care, research and education, our Radiation Oncology Department treats more patients than any other cancer center in Ohio. We continually invest in technology innovations to deliver radiation with maximum precision, lessening treatment burdens on patients. Our investigators lead research to improve efficacy while reducing toxicities.
Therapies include brachytherapy, radiosurgery, hyperthermia, image-guidance, intraoperative, intravascular, Gamma Knife®, stereotactic body radiation therapy, TheraSphere® and total body irradiation.
Multidisciplinary teams of experts — including radiation oncology physicians, medical physicists, advanced practice nurses, registered nurses, medical dosimetrists, radiation therapists, patient financial advocates, research nurses, social workers, registered dieticians and patient service specialists — facilitate informed treatment decisions and streamline patient care.
Individualized care plans consider each patient’s health, age, cancer type and ability to tolerate potential side effects.
In addition to providing radiation for cancer, our team offers low-dose radiation therapy for non-malignant conditions such as certain forms of osteoarthritis and Dupuytren’s disease.
Complimentary specialist-led educational sessions for your healthcare professionals during tumor boards, grand rounds and other meetings. Email cancerspeakers@ccf.org for details.
