Neuro-Oncology

Saint Luke’s Neuro-Oncology is a comprehensive brain and spine tumor program that uses advanced treatments, surgical techniques, and sophisticated imaging to treat the most challenging tumors. Patients will meet with experts in oncology and surgery, making it convenient—and fast—to move from diagnosis to treatment.

Brain and spine tumor treatment

Our neuro-oncology team has all the tools to treat complex brain tumors:

  • Advanced surgical technologies to help protect a patient’s vision, movement, and other important functions.
  • Radiation techniques that target tumors and areas where cancer may recur. We offer radiation guided by sophisticated imaging not available at most hospitals and targeted radiation using GammaTile®.
  • Carefully tailored chemotherapy treatments designed to be effective while minimizing side effects.
  • Access to clinical trials investigating new and improved treatments for brain and spine tumors—sometimes offering therapies years before they are available elsewhere.

Conditions we treat include

Patient-centered care

Our goal is to give our patients the best quality of life as we treat their disease.
