Cancer Center Center of Hope

Advanced technologies

Providence Cancer Center equipmentThe best equipment for our experts

No other cancer treatment facility on the West Coast offers the breadth of state-of-the-art technology that’s available under one roof at the new Providence Cancer Center.

The world’s most advanced radiation therapy technology is housed on the garden level. Here, radiation oncologists offer the most effective treatment with the fewest side effects.

We’ll also be the first hospital in the Northwest to have Gamma Knife Perfexion, which is revolutionizing noninvasive surgery for head and neck cancers and brain metastases.

21 new surgical suites function as multimedia command centers that are wired in to nursing stations and labs. That way, technicians and nursing staff can monitor and assist with every operation.

One other unique feature of the new Providence Cancer Center is that our researchers and clinical trials nurses are part of your medical team, located right in the building giving you access to the latest and most advanced treatments.
