UAMS Radiation Oncology Center

If your doctor recommends radiation as part of your cancer treatment plan, our caring and compassionate specialists in the UAMS Radiation Oncology Center provide expert medical care.

The center treats both adult and pediatric cancer patients. We recognize the special needs of the children in our care are dedicated to ensuring the highest quality health care for them and for all patients.

Located adjacent to the UAMS Outpatient Center, our cancer clinics, infusion clinics, medical center and other complementary patient services are conveniently located just moments from the center.

UAMS radiation oncologists work collaboratively to provide state-of-the-art treatment options, including TomoTherapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), image guided radiation therapy (IGRT), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and Hyperthermia Therapy, which involves heating the tumor.

We are in the process of replacing our center’s two existing linear accelerators. Our new state-of-the-art equipment will provide advanced cancer treatment capabilities, accelerating radiation therapy and radiosurgery that can shorten the overall cancer treatment course.
