Cancer Radiation Oncology at the
Georgia Radiation Therapy Center

Georgia Radiation Therapy Center is a free standing cancer treatment center located on the campus of Georgia Regents Medical Center. Over one thousand patients from across Georgia and South Carolina come to this facility every year for treatment. Georgia Regents Medical Center Radiation Therapy Center treats patients from four local hospitals: Georgia Regents Medical Center, University Health System, Veterans Administration, and Trinity Hospital.

Our Radiation Therapy Center houses four linear accelerators, a computed tomography machine (CT), and a positron emission computed tomography machine (PET/CT). The PET/CT machine is used to find and diagnose cancer. The CT machine is used to plan out and construct treatment portals for cancer patients. The linear accelerators are used to administer the radiation treatments.
