Cancer HealthCare Associates uses only the best and most advanced technologies and treatments at our advanced facilities, which we designed to help our patients feel comfortable, relaxed and right at home while they receive the superior care they deserve.

Our main office is at University of Miami Hospital, in Miami.

Here are some highlights about our facilities and the technologies we use:

• Our 1,500-square-foot Miami Brachytherapy Center at the University of Miami Hospital campus features the most effective and cutting-edge technologies.
  
  Our Varian high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy equipment delivers high-intensity radiation directly into tumors through fine needles. These fine needles are deployed from computer-controlled afterloaders that move the radiation source on a wire within the needles according to our prescribed treatment plans. The total dose is delivered in a series of treatment sessions.
  
  Varian supplies VariSource™ and GammaMed™ afterloaders, as well as BrachyVision™ treatment planning software and applicators, for this therapy.
  
  We also utilize Varian's new Vitesse™ module, which Varian recently added to its BrachyVision software to streamline prostate HDR brachytherapy. This module helps us turn many treatments from overnight hospital stays to outpatient procedures. With Vitesse, we can transfer ultrasound images generated during needle placement directly into the BrachyVision software, eliminating the need for CT scans, and making it possible to complete a treatment plan within minutes. Among the many benefits this system provides for our patients, Vitesse helps contain the cost of treatment and makes the experience better for our patients.
