Surgery

Surgery is often the first treatment step for people with cancer. TidalHealth’s surgeons have a “patient first” philosophy that is combined with clinical excellence and a commitment to innovation. 

TidalHealth’s Richard A. Henson Cancer Institute not only offers minimally invasive surgery, but also offers robotic surgery performed with the daVinci Surgical Robot. 

---

Radiation Oncology 

Also called radiotherapy or radiation therapy, radiation oncology uses high energy rays of radiation to stop cancer cells from dividing or growing. Radiation can be used on different types of cancer and the intensity or dose of radiation varies by patient.

Radiation oncologists are doctors that use radiation to treat cancer. Radiation oncologists work with a patient’s cancer care team, including medical oncologists, to recommend treatment and develop a patient’s care plan. 

Our caring team of providers ensure that patients have a comfortable and calm experience during treatment. Patients and their families also have access to a nurse navigator and a care coordinator to guide them through the healthcare system and help finding support services. 

TidalHealth radiation oncology services feature the latest technology, including Intensity-modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) at TidalHealth Allen Cancer Center and the TrueBeam System at TidalHealth Richard A. Henson Cancer Institute. This advanced technology is designed to address a range of clinical cases. The TrueBeam system uses the latest treatment techniques, including SBRT, SRS, RapidArc® and Gated RapidArc®. We are among the first centers in the United States to offer this technology. 

---

Medical Oncology

Medical oncology is a branch of medicine that treats cancer, often with drugs by killing or slowing the growth of the cancer. Medical oncologists are doctors that help patients understand their diagnosis. They recommend treatment options and guide the care of cancer patients. They work with other specialists to develop personal plans of care and help manage pain and discomfort.

TidalHealth’s cancer team includes oncologists, hematologists and internists who provide care for all types of cancer as well as hematological (blood) disorders. Medical oncology treatment options include chemotherapy, biotherapy, and immunotherapy. The center provides infusion services and transfusion services based on a patient’s individualized treatment plan

Infusion treatments are given in a calm and healing environment. Refreshments, private televisions and seating for guests make time in treatment as comfortable as possible.

---

Clinical Trials 

Access to clinical trials is a benefit for patients and their families being treated at TidalHealth. It offers a chance to try the latest treatment and technology. Clinical trial nurses discuss cancer prevention, treatment, quality of life and survivorship with patients.

TidalHealth Peninsula Regional is one of three hospitals in Maryland – and the only Eastern Shore hospital – accepted into the elite Johns Hopkins Clinical Research Network. We also participate in National Cancer Institute and pharmaceutical-sponsored studies.

Screenings

Mammograms

TidalHealth offers 3D mammography, also known as digital tomosynthesis, one of the most advanced imaging technologies available for the early detection of breast cancer. This technology uses lower radiation doses, less forceful compression and quicker exam times. 

Breast cancer impacts many women throughout the country, but if detected early, survival rates are about 90% or better. Regular mammograms are recommended for women 40 years of age  and up by the American College of Radiology. Those with a family history of breast cancer may start earlier – 10 years before the age of diagnosis in a first-degree relative, such as a mother or sister. 

Catch breast cancer early and perform self-exams at least once a month. Here’s how:

1. Lie down on your back with a pillow under your right shoulder. 
2. Use the pads of the three middle fingers on your left hand to examine your right breast. 
3. Press using light, medium and firm pressure in a circular motion and follow in an up-and-down pattern. 
4. Feel for changes in your breast, above and below your collarbone and in your armpit area. 
5. Repeat on your left breast. 
6. If you notice a change, call your doctor.

---

Lung Cancer Screening

According to the American Lung Association, lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in both men and women in the United States. It causes more deaths than the next three most common cancers combined: colon, breast and prostate. 

TidalHealth offers lung cancer screenings with the use of low-dose computed tomography (CT) scan. This test is offered to people at a high risk for lung cancer. Using much less radiation than a typical CT of the chest, it can detect small nodules, which are not seen on a screening chest x-ray. 

Most insurances cover the host of the screening for those at higher risk. Criteria for most insurances to cover the screening are:

• 55 to 77 years of age
• Current smoker or quit smoking in the past 15 years
• Have a greater than or equal to 30 pack year history – equals 1 pack a day for 30 years
• Do not currently have symptoms for lung cancer
• Have not had a CT chest scan in the last 12 months

To learn more, talk with your healthcare provider. They will help you with the decision-making process and, if you meet the criteria, schedule you for the screening.

For more information, call 410-543-7012 or 1-866-9-CANCER (922-6237).

Colorectal Screening

If you're 50 years old or older, getting a screening test for colorectal cancer could save your life. Colonoscopy is a procedure to look for polyps, abnormal areas, or cancer. Regular screening, beginning at age 50, is the key to preventing colorectal cancer. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends that adults age 50 to 75 be screened for colorectal cancer.

---

Skin Cancer Screening

There is one essential step to take before heading outdoors: apply sunscreen. Many neglect to protect their skin until summertime, but UV rays can cause damage year-round. 

TidalHealth dermatology experts donate their time throughout the year to provide free skin cancer screenings to Delmarva residents. Our team teaches the community about prevention of skin cancer and encourages early detection. 

For more information on upcoming skin cancer screening events, call 410-543-7006 or 1-866-9-CANCER (922-6237).

Diagnosis 

The first step in your cancer journey is diagnosis, and it’s important to ensure that diagnosis is as quick and accurate as possible.

Step One: Radiology

Radiological images are critical to cancer diagnosis, such as mammograms or CT scans that may find suspicious spots. Doctors trained in reading these images, called radiologists, are an important part of the process.

Step Two: Biopsy

When a routine screening or a doctor’s physical exam has found an area of concern, the next step is usually a biopsy. A biopsy is a sample of the tissue your doctor suspects may be cancerous; a pathologist will look at the tissue under a microscope and examine to find out whether the cells are cancerous or not.

There are many types of biopsies; they may be performed by a surgeon or other specialist. In the case of a colonoscopy, the biopsy may be performed at the same time as the screening if your gastroenterologist sees a growth that needs examination. Needle biopsies, which are used to get a sample of tissue from inside your body, will be performed using CT scans or ultrasounds at the same time, so doctors can make sure they are sampling the right spot.

Some of the procedures that we offer to diagnose and stage cancer include:

CT Scan
A computed tomography (CT) scan uses X-rays to make detailed pictures of structures inside the body.

Spiral CT Scan
Creates more detailed pictures and may be better at finding small abnormal areas inside the body. It may be used to help diagnose disease, plan treatment, or find out how well treatment is working.

MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a test that uses a magnetic field and pulses of radio wave energy to make pictures of organs and structures that are inside the body.

Ultrasound
Also called sonography, it uses sound waves to develop ultrasound images of what’s going on inside the body. An instrument called a transducer emits high-frequency sound, inaudible to human ears, and then records echoes as the sound waves bounce back. This helps determine the size, shape and consistency of soft tissues and organs.

Bronchoscopy
Allows a doctor to view a patient’s throat, larynx, trachea and lower airways and remove small samples of tissue if necessary.

Endoscopic Ultrasound Guided Fine Needle Aspiration
In this type of biopsy procedure, a thin needle is inserted into an area of abnormal appearing tissue or body fluid. As with other types of biopsies, the sample collected during fine needle aspiration can help make a diagnosis or rule out conditions such as cancer.

Mediastinoscopy
This surgery looks at the inside of the upper chest between and in front of the lungs.

Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy
Using technology similar to a GPS, this bronchoscopic technique promises accurate navigation to peripheral pulmonary target lesions.

Stereotactic (Non-Surgical) Breast Biopsies
Doctors use X-ray to guide a needle to the biopsy site to remove samples of breast tissue.

Ultrasound Guided (Non-Surgical) Breast Biopsies
Using ultrasound as a guide for correct placement, a needle is placed into the potential trouble spot in the breast tissue and samples are taken through the needle.

Sentinel Node Location For Biopsy
A surgery that removes lymph node tissue to look for cancer and determine if a known cancer has spread from its original site.
