Children's hematology oncology treatments we offer

We offer the full spectrum of treatments with a compassionate, patient-centered approach. Cancer treatment may include:

Blood transfusions

Health care providers use an intravenous (IV) line to deliver blood or blood components to children.

Bone marrow transplant

This treatment replaces damaged or diseased bone marrow with healthy cells.

Chemotherapy

This treatment involves administering medicines that destroy fast-growing cells, including cancer cells.

Immunotherapy

This treatment stimulates the body's immune system to increase its ability to fight cancer.

Radiation therapy

This treatment uses high doses of radiation to shrink or destroy cancer cells and tumors.

Surgery

Often, oncologists will recommend surgery to remove as much of a tumor as possible while keeping healthy tissue intact.

Targeted therapy

These medicines target specific types of cancer cells to destroy them or stop their growth.
