A Leader in Cancer Care Bringing Radiation Oncology to your Community

For many people with cancer, radiation treatments are a daily routine to help kill cancer cells and shrink tumors.

M. D. Anderson's radiation oncology services are now available in the Albuquerque area, with a comprehensive treatment center that brings excellent radiation therapy and patient care beyond the Texas Medical Center.

The M. D. Anderson Cancer Center Radiation Treatment Center at Presbyterian Kaseman Hospital increases the choice of radiation oncology treatment available in New Mexico and brings patients access to M. D. Anderson protocols and treatment options. Also, many patients will no longer need to travel outside of New Mexico to receive cancer treatment.

Radiation Oncology Services include:

• Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) delivery system, capable of administering ultra precise doses of radiation to previously unreachable tumors. 
• Advanced CT diagnostic imaging 
• PET/CT diagnostic imaging 
• Ultrasound 
• 3D treatment planning 
• High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy 
• Permanent seed prostate implant 
• MammoSite Radiation Therapy (RTS) to treat breast cancer 

The radiation therapy care team includes a radiation oncologist, radiation therapists, dosimetrists, nurses and patient service coordinators who have all been trained at M. D. Anderson and are devoted to the institutional core values of caring, integrity and discovery.

M. D. Anderson is ranked as the nation's top cancer hospital in U.S.News & World Report's "America's Best Hospitals" survey since the survey's inception in 1990. Visit their website to learn more about M. D. Anderson Cancer Center.
