About Us
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.
We have two radiation oncology locations in downtown Baltimore, the University of Maryland Medical Center, and the Maryland Proton Treatment Center. Our community radiation oncology practices in Maryland include:
- Central Maryland Radiation Oncology in Columbia
- Tate Cancer Center at UM Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie
- UM Upper Chesapeake Health Kaufman Cancer Center in Bel Air
- Requard Radiation Oncology Center at UM Shore Regional Health in Easton
- Radiation Oncology at the UM Capital Region Health Cancer Center in Largo
- Radiation Oncology Center at UM St. Joseph Medical Center in Towson
Each site is staffed with University of Maryland School of Medicine faculty. Our affiliation with the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center opens the door for leading-edge treatment modalities, cutting-edge clinical trials, and expert collaboration and consultation with surgical and medical oncologists, as well as other field experts. The Department’s focus on promoting translational research includes integration of our radiobiology, physics and clinical divisions, as well as 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 (2018-present). Our physicians, physicists and basic science researchers are nationally recognized leaders in discovering new and better ways to treat cancer with radiotherapy.
