Minneapolis Radiation Oncology: Providing Comprehensive Cancer Treatment
Welcome to Minneapolis Radiation Oncology, the leading radiation therapy centers in the Twin Cities. Our team of experienced and compassionate professionals is dedicated to providing comprehensive cancer treatment to our patients.
At Minneapolis Radiation Oncology, we understand that a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming and stressful. That's why we offer personalized care and support throughout your treatment journey. Our state-of-the-art facilities are equipped with the latest technology, allowing us to provide advanced radiation therapy options for a wide range of cancers.
Our Services
We offer a variety of radiation therapy services tailored to meet each patient's unique needs. Our team works closely with other healthcare providers involved in your care to ensure that you receive the best possible treatment plan.
Some of our services include:
1. External Beam Radiation Therapy: This type of radiation therapy uses high-energy beams from outside the body to target cancer cells.
2. Brachytherapy: This involves placing radioactive sources directly into or near the tumor site.
3. Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS): SRS is a non-invasive procedure that delivers high doses of radiation precisely targeted at small tumors or lesions in the brain or spine.
4. Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT): IGRT uses imaging technology such as CT scans or MRI scans during treatment planning and delivery for more precise targeting of tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
5. Proton Therapy: Proton therapy is an advanced form of external beam radiation therapy that uses protons instead of X-rays, allowing for more precise targeting and less damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
Our Team
At Minneapolis Radiation Oncology, our team consists of highly trained professionals who are dedicated to providing exceptional care for our patients. Our board-certified physicians have extensive experience in treating all types and stages of cancer using various forms of radiation therapy techniques.
In addition, our team includes certified medical dosimetrists who work closely with physicians during treatment planning by calculating optimal doses based on individual patient anatomy and tumor characteristics using sophisticated computer software programs called Treatment Planning Systems (TPS).
We also have certified medical physicists who ensure that all equipment used during treatments is functioning correctly according to strict safety standards set by regulatory agencies such as The Joint Commission (TJC) or American College Of Radiology (ACR).
Patient-Centered Care
At Minneapolis Radiation Oncology, we believe in patient-centered care where every aspect revolves around you – from diagnosis through recovery – ensuring you receive personalized attention throughout your journey towards healing from cancer.
We understand how important it is for patients undergoing cancer treatments not only physically but emotionally too; therefore, we provide emotional support through counseling sessions with licensed social workers available on-site at no additional cost.
