Linear Accelerator

Department of Radiation Oncology Boosts Cancer Treatment Success with State-of-the-Art Linear Accelerators

The Department of Radiation Oncology at University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center in Cleveland, Ohio, delivers Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) as well as advanced image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), allowing our experts to improve accuracy with cancer treatment delivery.


State-of-the-Art Technology

Linear accelerators are groundbreaking devices that are revolutionizing cancer treatment at University Hospitals. Using a linear accelerator, our experts can treat all parts/organs of the body by delivering high-energy radiation to the exact site of the patient’s tumor.


Increasing Cancer Cure Rates

Linear accelerators allow our radiation oncologists to track a patient’s cancer daily to accurately monitor cancer treatment. If the tumor changes in shape and size, experts can adapt the treatment to the changes in tumor volume, which increases cure rate and reduces risks to healthy tissue.


Cancers We Treat

Almost all types of cancer can be treated with this technology including:
