The Charach Cancer Treatment Center offers the area's most
advanced cancer treatment all in one convenient location. Programs, treatments
and services include:
Comprehensive Breast Services - Caring and effective
preventative and diagnostic cancer services for women and men. We offer
mammography, ultrasound, sterotactic breast biopsy, bone density, MRI and
nuclear medicine procedures. All mammography films are reviewed by two
radiologists, thus it is giving everyone a second opinion automatically. We
offer early morning, evening and some Saturday appointments.
Infusion Center - The Infusion Center at the Charach
Cancer Treatment Center provides patients the opportunity to be treated for a
wide variety of medical conditions on an outpatient basis. Among the medical
specialties that refer patients to the Infusion Center are: Hematology, Medical
Oncology, Gastroenterology, Infectious Diseases, General Internal Medicine,
Neurology and Rheumatology. (More)
Radiation Therapy - Our advanced treatments include
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), which allows radiation amounts to
be adjusted during treatment to spare close-by normal tissue and permits
increased doses of radiation to the tumor. Multi-Leaf Collimator (MLC) allows
metal "fingers", controlled by a computer, to filter beams of radiation in a
precise pattern for the most effective results.
Support Services - We understand the unique needs of
cancer patients and offer a full range of programs to assist them. Individual
and family counseling resources and support groups for family and friends are
provided by a trained Oncology Social Worker.
Patient Education and Resources - Comprehensive
resources including brochures, resource books, videos as well as patient and
caregiver classes.
