Florida Hospital DeLand Cancer Institute Expansion
News clips from Channel 9 and Channel 13 in Orlando, covering Florida Hospital DeLand’s Cancer Institute expansion. Florida Hospital DeLand Cancer Institute celebrated the completion of its .2 million expansion today, Sunday, August 21, 2011. As part of the expansion, the facility’s size was increased by more than 25 percent and is now more than 7800 square feet. Additionally, both the interior and exterior of the existing building was renovated to mirror the hospital’s current façade. In addition to the construction, the Florida Hospital DeLand Cancer Institute upgraded the tecnology available to fight cancer by adding the latest tools in radiation oncology, including Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) and Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography (PET-CT). Tissues, organs, and many tumors are not rigidly fixed in one position. They can move several centimeters inside the body due to natural physiological processes, such as breathing. Because of this, IGRT Respiratory Gating is essential to tracking and targeting tumors with radiation. This feature provides more precise tumor targeting, which means radiation beam dosage levels can be increased, allowing tumors to receive a higher dose of radiation while nearby healthy tissues receive very little. With Florida Hospital DeLand’s new GE Discovery PET-CT 600, doctors can better determine whether a mass is malignant (cancerous) or benign (not cancerous). This equipment has highly-advanced capabilities, which …

Question by mikkers: Any opinions on Arthur G James Cancer Hospital and Richard J Solove Research Institute in Columbus, OH?
My son has Melanoma Skin Caner. He has been treated with Chemo for the past 6 weeks. The chemo is no working and and the cancer has now spread to the spleen. I have heard of a cancer institution in Columbus, Ohio, but i don’t know the name. Is it Arthur G James Cancer Hospital? and how good is it? If not, what is the name?
Deeply saddened
Best answer:
Answer by oncogenomics
I don’t have any personal experience with Arthur G James Cancer Hospital. However, it is one of NCIs Comprehensive Cancer Centers. There are only 39 NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in the USA.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Cancer_Center
These are the best of the best. They have comprehensive facilities and are involved in state of the art research.
I’m sorry to hear about your son. Advanced melanoma is very difficult to treat. There has been some success with vaccines against melanoma. You may want to check into it.
