Research Program: Cancer Control
About Me
More info forI am a radiation oncologist who specializes in treating patients who have been diagnosed with gynecologic cancers. My clinical interests include conformal radiation, intensity modulated radiation therapy and high-dose-rate intracavitary and interstitial brachytherapy. I'm also a member of the Cancer Control Program at the OSUCCC – James, where my research focuses on cancer survivorship and side effects associated with radiation therapy and brachytherapy, which is the treatment that is based on the insertion of radioactive implants directly into the affected tissue. Brachytherapy can negatively impact sexual function and quality of life for women with gynecologic cancers. In addition, I have published on techniques for cardiac sparing for women receiving radiation for left breast cancers, and I am participating in national clinical trials that are accruing patients for gynecologic malignancies. I have authored or co-authored publications in several scientific journals, including Journal of Radiation Oncology, Annals of Surgical Oncology and Technology in Cancer Research and Treatment. I am also a member of such professional organizations as the American Society of Radiation Oncology, the American Brachytherapy Society and the Alliance for Clinical Trials for Oncology.
