Advanced Cancer Care in Northern Nevada

Radiation therapy is a commonly used tool to treat many types of cancer. It may be used as the only therapy or in combination with surgery or chemotherapy. The goal of radiation treatment is to deliver high doses of radiation to cancer cells while limiting injury to surrounding normal tissues.

Our Reno oncology experts use the most advanced radiation therapy technologies available to minimize side effects and improve outcomes.

Oncology Nevada continually invests in cutting edge radiation treatment technology, keeping patients close to home for their treatment and care and serving as a referral center for patients throughout the country.

Some of the most common are:

Plantar fasciitis
Arthritis
Bursitis
Tennis elbow / Golfer’s elbow
Keloids and Hypertrophic scars
Dupuytren’s and Ledderhose (Palmar and Plantar fibromatosis)
Trigeminal neuralgia

A little space before prostate radiation can make a big difference after. In a clinical study, SpaceOAR Hydrogel was shown to help minimize the impact on urinary, sexual and bowel quality of life for prostate cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy.
