Radiation Oncology in Arizona

Research

Many cancer patients receive treatment at Mayo Clinic in Arizona each year. Some patients are eligible to participate in research and receive investigational therapies through clinical trials.

Mayo researchers study radiation therapy protocols (plans for a course of treatment or an experiment) for quality of life and symptom control, as well as for specific cancers.

Many Mayo oncologists are part of the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center, an exceptional research organization that performs fundamental research on cancer causes, treatment and prevention. The National Cancer Institute has designated the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center a comprehensive cancer center, in part because of its depth and breadth of resources.
