Our collaborative team also includes medical physicists, dosimetrists (implements treatment plan), radiation therapists, radiation oncology nurses, oncology social workers, oncology nurse navigators, and dietitians. Our multidisciplinary approach allows our experts to build personalized plans to treat you as a whole person, not just your disease.

You’ll find the most advanced radiation therapy techniques, including proton therapy, at Penn Medicine | Virtua Health Radiation Oncology. Our experienced team will work with you to recommend an approach that is best suited for your condition. Treatment techniques include:

Proton Therapy: Delivers radiation into the tumor through proton beam therapy. Treatments are provided at The Penn Medicine | Virtua Health Proton Therapy Center located on the Virtua Voorhees campus.

Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS): Pinpoints brain tumors with targeted radiation treatment without affecting healthy brain tissue

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): Delivers radiation to small areas within the body, such as the lung and spine

High-Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy: Delivers radiation directly into the tumor to treat types of gynecologic, breast, and non-melanoma skin cancers

Volumetric Arc Radiotherapy (VMAT): Delivers continuous radiation as the machine rotates, often used for head, neck, and prostate cancers

Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT): Targeting system delivers higher doses of radiation to the tumor while preserving nearby healthy tissue

Image-Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT): Image matching technology targets and tracks the tumor for precise delivery of radiation
