Radiation Oncology

Radiation Oncology at Mercy, led by Maria Jacobs, M.D. and Marlana Ottinger, M.D., sets the highest standards of care for patients with cancer. Physicians and staff combine the latest in treatment techniques with state-of-the-art technology to benefit each patient.

More than half of all cancer patients will require radiation therapy as part of their cancer care, according to the National Cancer Institute. This treatment can be delivered both externally and internally. Radiation produced by photon (x-rays) or electron beams through a linear accelerator is known as external beam therapy. Radiation therapy can also be given internally by either temporary or permanent placement of radioactive sources (known as brachytherapy or implant therapy).

The services of Radiation Oncology at Mercy are part of an integrated cancer management strategy involving surgery and chemotherapy in addition to radiation therapy.
