The Cancer Center at Lake Manassas has been awarded at three-year term of accreditation in radiation oncology services.
This follows a recent survey by the American College of Radiology.
"This accreditation is an acknowledgement that we utilize state-of-the-art technology and best practices to provide high-quality patient care and operate at the highest standards for a radiation oncology facility," said Dr. Sanjeev K. Aggarwal, the center's medical director.
The ACR, headquartered in Reston, awards accreditation to facilities for the achievement of high practice standards after a peer- review evaluation of the practice. Evaluations are conducted by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field.
The center offers radiation therapy technologies, including IMRT, IGRT and PWET/CT scanning. The center is the only facility in Northern Virginia to offer the faster, more precise RapidArc radiation therapy.
