Radiation Oncology
Broward Health offers advanced radiation treatments designed to target cancer, relieve symptoms and support your recovery.
Advanced Therapy for Comprehensive Cancer Care
At Broward Health, our radiation oncologists work closely with surgical and medical teams to deliver personalized, coordinated cancer care. This collaborative approach helps you move through treatment with clarity and support.
We offer some of the most advanced radiation therapies available, including CyberKnife and Arc-based IMRT. These techniques can precisely target and reduce cancer masses while minimizing impact on healthy tissue.
Broward Health’s radiation oncology program is accredited by the American College of Radiation Oncology (ACRO) and treats a wide range of cancers, including breast, colorectal, head and neck, gynecologic, pediatric and more.
Radiation Oncology Treatments
This advanced form of radiation therapy uses a rotating machine to deliver precise doses of radiation to cancer cells while limiting exposure to healthy tissue. It’s designed to be more accurate and more comfortable for patients.
Also known as internal radiation therapy, brachytherapy involves placing a small radioactive source directly inside or near the tumor. This allows your care team to target cancer with high precision while limiting radiation to surrounding tissue.
CyberKnife delivers high-dose, highly targeted radiation to treat tumors with precision. It helps destroy cancer cells while protecting healthy tissue, all without the need for surgery.
Broward Health experts employ image-guided radiation therapy that uses real-time imaging to guide radiation to cancer tumors, destroying cancer cells while protecting more healthy tissue.
This targeted treatment uses radioactive medicine attached to molecules that seek out and destroy cancer cells, helping protect healthy tissue along the way.
Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive medications given by mouth or through an IV. They travel through the body to target and treat cancer cells from within.
