Multidisciplinary Tumor Board Brings the Experts Together
Cancer is a complex condition and, as a cancer patient, you want as many experts as possible working together to treat you. Our tumor board comes together to discuss cancer cases, and together we determine the best treatment plan. A multidisciplinary team approach to treatment has many advantages. Each team member brings their expertise and perspectives, and together the right treatment is designed for each patient.

Medical and Biologic Therapies
McGlinn Cancer Institute offers several advanced treatment options:
- Anti-cancer medicine (such as chemotherapy) that targets growing cancer cells
- Immunotherapy to stimulate your body’s immune system to fight cancer
- Targeted therapy to pick out specific features of a cancer cell
- Hormone therapies delivered throughout the body to slow or block hormones that promote cancer growth
Radiation Therapy
Radiation oncologists design radiotherapy treatments that work to destroy tumors. We offer external, internal, and stereotactic radiosurgery, and use the latest high-dose, precise technology.
Cancer Surgery
Cancer surgery uses advanced techniques to treat cancer. Surgical oncologists and surgical specialists in urology, gynecology, neurosurgery, head and neck surgery, thoracic surgery, and plastic and reconstructive surgery offer open and minimally invasive procedures using the latest approaches, including robotics-assisted approaches to treat your cancer.
Interventional and Endoscopic Cancer Procedures
Interventional and endoscopic cancer procedures bring together interventional radiologists, gastroenterologists, ear, nose and throat doctors, and other specialists to offer minimally invasive procedures. These are performed with the help of image guidance and require only small incisions, catheters, and scopes that allow us to see and treat or remove cancer without open surgery.
Cancer Clinical Trials
Cancer clinical trials offer patients new and innovative treatments and can provide access to treatment options that may not be available to you otherwise. Each patient at McGlinn Cancer Institute is reviewed by our Cancer Clinical Trials Team and appropriate recommendations are discussed.
