Commonwealth Atrius Cancer Center

Radiation Oncology

Exceptional medical care starts with exceptional professionals and the latest technology. At CACC, we want to ensure that you receive the best of both worlds.

Our experienced medical team includes therapists, oncology-certified nurses, a physicist, a dosimetrist, and support staff.

To enhance your care, we offer the most sophisticated technologies available anywhere. This includes Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT), and PET-CT treatment planning. Using IMRT, we target tumors with greater precision than ever before, destroying cancerous cells while preserving the healthy surrounding tissues. In addition, the emerging technology of 4-D treatment planning, with real-time software, will allow us to track the movement of tumors during breathing.

At the same time, the most advanced technology must work hand in hand with personalized care, and we treat patients as though they were members of our family.

Note: The radiation oncology department of CACC is operated by Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, an affiliate of Atrius Health.
