Once we identify the type of cancer and locate the problem area, our cancer specialists work to overcome it with proven technologies and treatments.
Chemotherapy and radiation both help shrink and destroy cancer cells and prevent them from spreading.
High-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy and IMRT with RapidArc® therapy deliver more targeted radiation to only where it's needed to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible.
Nonsurgical options include stereotactic radiosurgery, a relatively quick and painless method of cancer treatment that destroys tumors and employs targeted hormone therapy.
Advanced Oncology Care
Our AdventHealth hospitals and cancer institutes also specialize in some of the most advanced cancer treatments, including minimally invasive surgeries and immunotherapy options.
Gamma Knife® Radiosurgery is a surgical procedure for brain and spine cancer patients that allows our experts to remove tumors without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue. Our patients have experienced lower risks of side effects, faster recovery times and better outcomes.
Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) for breast cancer patients reduces damage done to healthy tissues and decreases (or eliminates) the number of post-surgery radiation treatments.
MRI-guided HDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer patients is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that limits your exposure to radiation through more targeted radiation therapy.
Robotic prostatectomy for prostate cancer patients is a procedure in which our oncology surgeons guide a highly precise surgical tool to operate on delicate organs for better outcomes and minimum side effects.

Quote
I'm still the same guy, still dynamic, still in love with life and still looking forward.
We talked for an hour and a half, which is unheard of for a doctor to call someone who's not his patient and do a consult over the phone . . . that helped ease our fears.
An Accurate Diagnosis Is the First Step Toward Better Outcomes
Early detection is one of the most important steps to beating cancer. That's why we offer advanced screenings and diagnostic testing. Accurate and timely diagnoses can confirm the presence of cancer and provide essential information about the type, stage and characteristics. The right diagnosis is the foundation for personalized cancer treatment plans.
We offer a variety of diagnostic methods to ensure we get the right information to build a care plan catered to your needs.

Biopsy
Excisional biopsy is the surgical removal of a suspicious area or tumor for examination to determine if cancer is present. A needle biopsy involves extracting a tissue sample using a needle to analyze for cancer cells.
Blood Tests
Blood tests measure levels of certain substances in the blood, such as tumor markers, to aid in cancer diagnosis and monitoring.
Bronchoscopy
Bronchoscopy allows visualization of the airways and lungs using a flexible tube with a camera, which is useful for diagnosing lung cancer and other respiratory conditions.
Colonoscopy
The primary diagnostic tool for identifying colon cancer, a colonoscopy, uses a flexible tube with a camera inserted into the colon to look for abnormalities or signs of cancer.
Computed Tomography (CT) Scan
A CT scan provides detailed cross-sectional images of the body, which are useful for detecting tumors and assessing their size and location.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
MRI utilizes magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of organs and tissues. It’s particularly helpful in evaluating soft tissues like the brain, spinal cord and muscles.
Molecular Testing
Molecular testing analyzes genetic mutations and molecular markers in tumor cells to guide treatment decisions and predict treatment response.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan
A PET scan involves injecting a radioactive tracer to detect metabolic activity in tissues, aiding in cancer staging and monitoring treatment response.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of organs and tissues. It’s commonly used for examining the abdomen, pelvis and breasts.
Upper Endoscopy
An upper endoscopy exam uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera to examine the upper digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach and upper small intestine.
X-rays
X-rays produce images of internal body structures, which are often used to detect abnormalities in bones and soft tissues.
