The UAB Department of Radiation Oncology and the UAB O'Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center recently celebrated the grand opening of UAB's new brachytherapy suite, a facility that is designed to provide brachytherapy to patients who have cancer. The new suite is the only one of its kind in Alabama that in many instances offers patients with specific cancers an improved treatment experience that is safer and more efficient for the patient.

Brachytherapy, or brachy, is a treatment commonly used to treat patients with gynecological and prostate cancers, but it can be used for a wide variety of cancer types.
