Sanford Roger Maris Cancer Center

Non-invasive Treatment for Brain Tumors

Through collaboration between radiation oncology and neurosurgery, the Roger Maris Cancer Center radiosurgery program can offer non-invasive and highly targeted treatment for cancerous brain tumors and non-cancer brain conditions.

Radiosurgery for Other Tumor Locations

Radiosurgery is also used for other tumors outside of the brain. A radiation oncologist will determine if radiosurgery is an option depending on the type and location of the tumor.
