Description:

VCU’s Radiation Oncology residency program is among the longest-running of its kind in the country and provides residents with the clinical and procedural training necessary to develop into highly skilled and compassionate radiation oncologist.We are excited that the Massey Cancer Center will be moving into a new building in early 2022. Our expanded footprint will further enhance our training environment and feature a range of new technology providing fresh learning and research opportunities for our residents, physicists and MD faculty. Front and center of this technology line up will be three leading-edge linear accelerators, to include a MR-Linac (Viewray), and enhanced imaging capabilities with the addition of both a PET-CT and MRI simulator. We will also be enhancing our robust brachytherapy training with an expanded brachytherapy suite featuring two procedure rooms with enriched image guidance equipment to include an integrated ultrasound, CT and MRI imaging.As a graduate of this program, I have a vested interest in training future generations of radiation oncologists. Our alumni have gone on to rewarding careers all over the country in private practice and academia. I hope that you will consider joining us.Douglas W.
