Exceptional Care for Patients with Vaginal Cancer — You Have... A team of gynecologic oncology specialists who diagnose and treat dozens of patients with vaginal cancer, and are setting treatment guidelines for other physicians around the world. The program's team of gynecologic pathologists, among the largest of its kind, has deep expertise in diagnosing vaginal cancer and has made many significant discoveries regarding the early development of gynecologic cancers. Our GYN surgical oncologists perform minimally-invasive surgical techniques that preserve healthy tissue and reduce recovery time. Our physicians' pioneering research into radiation and concurrent chemotherapy treatment has led to improved survival rates for women with vaginal cancer. Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center was the first facility in the United States to offer MR-guided radiation implant treatment, a more targeted approach that minimizes damage to surrounding tissue. The radioactive seed implantation is performed under real-time MR guidance using a unique GE Signa® system – one of only a few in the world. Our physicians were the first to publish excellent clinical outcomes of the use of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) with dose constraints to protect surrounding tissue. We offer specialized care for women with sexual health or fertility concerns, and access to a wide array of support services and survivorship care.
