Radiation Oncology with Breakthrough Technology
Our nationally-recognized physicians, physicists and biologists provide world-class education for radiation oncology physicists.
Our program is dedicated to educating the next generations of leaders in our field, with a strong foundation in the clinical and technical aspects of radiation oncology physics. Few other departments in the country offer the same unparalleled alliance of physicians, physicists and biologists that our program is built upon.
Residents participate in clinical treatments with both conventional and state-of-the-art technologies including stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) via cone beam CT (CBCT), total body irradiation (TBI), total skin electron therapy (TSET), high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy and breath hold gated treatments.
Experience clinical training excellence by working at University Hospital and on research and/or development projects with our faculty members. Upon completion of the program, you will be a well-rounded physicist with experience in state-of-the-art radiation therapies.
Residents in the University of Michigan Medical School Department of Radiation Oncology are training to be leaders in the field of radiation oncology.
