Radiation oncology is a field of cancer medicine, which uses different forms of radiation in the battle against cancer. At Bayhealth, because we employ the newest and latest technologies, we are much better able to target and maximize the destruction of cancerous tumors while minimizing the effects of radiation therapy on the rest of the body.
Bayhealth’s team of specially trained and board-certified radiation oncologists are supported by nurses, radiation therapists, PhD-level medical physicists, and dosimetrists who work as a team to deliver the best care in the region.
