The Leon
Hess Cancer Center at Monmouth has been the region's leader in delivering the
most comprehensive cancer services for more than 30 years. The Hess Cancer Center's
Institute for Advanced Radiation Oncology has captured the worldwide spotlight
for its pioneering role in the delivery of state-of-the-art cancer therapy recently,
Monmouth became the fourth New Jersey hospital to have a radiation oncology department
accredited by the Bethesda, Md.-based American College of Radiation Oncology (ACRO)
-a national recognition of the quality, safety and appropriateness of its radiation
therapy.
With this achievement, Monmouth becomes the fourth. Additionally,
Monmouth is a clinical research affiliate of The Cancer Institute of New Jersey,
the state's first federally designated clinical cancer center.
