About Us

Overview of the Department of Radiation Oncology

For more than 100 years, the University of Maryland Department of Radiation Oncology has been pioneering radiation treatment in cancer, advancing scientific knowledge, and providing state-of-the-art educational opportunities.

Whether patients live in Baltimore or travel from their homes around the world, they know that they will be receiving the finest care, from the most state-of-the-art technology to the skilled and compassionate healing offered by every member of the Radiation Oncology faculty and staff.

Our department manages every type of cancer, providing a depth of experience that makes the University of Maryland not only the right place to receive care, but an ideal place for a professional career as well. The extraordinary pace of our recent progress has resulted from intellectual synergy and a shared, relentless ambition to deliver the highest quality of care to patients.

Each site is staffed with University of Maryland School of Medicine faculty. This affiliation opens the door to leading-edge treatment modalities, cutting-edge clinical trials and expert collaboration and consultation with University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center physicians. The Department’s focus on promoting translational research includes integration of our radiobiology, physics and clinical divisions, and other basic science departments.

The Department of Radiation Oncology has consistently ranked among the top 10 of NRG Oncology’s main member sites worldwide in terms of patient enrollments for clinical trials, and ranks number three as of 2022. Our physicians, physicists and basic science researchers are nationally recognized leaders in discovering new and better ways to treat cancer with radiotherapy.
