Pioneering Radiation Therapies:

Our department has led the way in developing the most innovative and effective radiation therapies in the world, including:

  • Proton beam therapy: Our proton therapy facility is the only one in the Northeast and one of six in the nation. We developed this breakthrough, highly targeted procedure, which results in improved patient outcomes and fewer side effects.
