Speech & Swallowing Therapy
The speech and swallowing therapy services at the Center for Cancer Care are designed to provide diagnosis, treatment, and management of swallowing and voice disorders.
Thoracic Oncology & Surgery
The ECMC Division of Thoracic Surgery is a highly skilled service in the Center that features many state-of-the-art cancer-related technologies, including the Ion endoluminal system, which is a robotic-assisted platform for minimally invasive biopsy in the lung that has broadened our capability at early detection and treatment of lung cancer, providing a much safer and faster way in diagnosing early-stage lung cancer.
