Mercy Medical Center Redding is leading the charge against lung cancer with the introduction of the Ion Robotic Lung Program.
As the only hospital north of Sacramento to Portland to offer this program, Mercy Medical Center Redding is now equipped with Realtime Cios Spin 3D-Cone beam CT technology – expanding access to cutting-edge technology in lung cancer detection. The Ion technology is a non-invasive approach that allows us to find and biopsy masses that were previously unreachable - allowing for early intervention and potentially life-saving treatments.
Oncologists that practice at the Mercy Redding Cancer Centers use a team approach to provide the finest quality of care. A tumor board brings together radiologists, surgeons, pathologists, medical oncologists and radiation oncologists to examine each diagnosis, and strategize and plan the best treatment for each patient.
Treatment options include:
Infusion Services
The Infusion Center at the Mercy Redding Cancer Centers offers infusion services in a patient-friendly environment. Our center strives to offer the best experience possible under what can be difficult circumstances.
When you visit the our centers, you will be cared for by experienced, certified nurses who provide a warm, supportive environment while you receive your treatment.
Precision Oncology
At the Mercy Redding Cancer Centers, we believe every cancer journey is unique and deserves a tailored approach specific to each individual. Through a technique called precision oncology, we are able to do that. Precision oncology uses molecular profiling to target specific genetic alterations in a patient’s tumors. Oncologists then treat the cancer with focused, specialized therapies, instead of a technique such as chemotherapy which can harm cancerous and healthy cells. Learn More
