August 11, 2022 – Radiation Center of Greater Nashua – The First Center in Northern New England to be Awarded for their Tattoo and Mark-Free Radiation Treatment.

We are excited to announce the Radiation Center of Greater Nashua are the proud recipients of an award, recognizing our ability to offer tattoo and mark-free radiation treatments to our patients with cancer.

This award recognizes the Radiation Center of Greater Nashua as being part of an exclusive, but growing group of tattoo and mark-free centers around the world. Using a technology known as Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT), we are now able to deliver a better treatment experience that offers our patients significant clinical and psychosocial benefits.

This advancement in our treatment approach has the potential to attract more of the 78% of patients who have voiced their preference for tattoo and mark-free treatments.

“We are extremely proud to offer this type of treatment for our patients,” says Stephen Harris, MD “Our research has shown that our patients clearly prefer having the option of going tattoo and mark-free and we’re really pleased to be able to offer treatments that put our patients, their needs and their safety first.”

About The Radiation Center of Greater Nashua

The Radiation Center of Greater Nashua provides local access to the highest quality radiation therapy services and was the first in New England to achieve APEx® Accreditation by ASTRO (American Society for Radiation Oncology). The Center is one of a handful of freestanding radiation therapy facilities in the United States. This means that patients from the greater Nashua area and surrounding communities have a local option for high-quality and cost-effective care that is a fraction of the cost of hospital-based radiation centers. Established in 1992 by Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital, Southern New Hampshire Medical Center and St. Joseph Hospital, the Center’s comprehensive care team has helped thousands of patients and their families. Over its 30-year history, the Center has continuously invested in innovative, state-of-the art technology such as RaySearch Laboratories RayStation, VisionRT AlignRT Advance tattoo-free treatment, and Elekta linear accelerators. As a result, patients don’t need to travel further from home to a larger center. The Radiation Center of Greater Nashua provides the same excellent standard of care and exceptional treatment.
