Hematology/Oncology
Pediatric Hematology and Oncology faculty treats childhood cancer and blood disorders, providing the best patient care, developing and implementing the latest advances in diagnosis and treatment, and educating patients, families and future Pediatric Hematologists/Oncologists. Since 1987, we have been directly involved in the advancement of care through multi-institutional cooperative group clinical trials through the Children's Oncology Group (COG). A multidisciplinary team of physicians in pediatrics, laboratory medicine, surgery, neurosurgery, orthopaedics, pathology, therapeutic radiology and diagnostic radiology work together on a case-by-case basis to treat each child:
Malignant tumors, including:
• Solid tumors, Wilms' Neuroblastoma Rhabdomyosarcoma
• Brain tumors
• Bone Tumors (Osteosarcoma & Ewing's Sarcoma)
|
| Leukemia |
| Lymphoma (Hodgkin's Disease & Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma) |
