The staff at Wake Radiology Oncology Services recently celebrated its ten year anniversary. When the practice opened its office a decade ago, it was the Triangle’s first freestanding, full-service outpatient radiation therapy center. Since then, the practice has nearly doubled in size and has introduced newer therapies to treat cancer patients.

Wake Radiology Oncology Services announced today that it will partner this year with the American Cancer Society for the 2008 Wake County Relay For Life events. As the Wake County Healthcare sponsor, the practice will support four of the 2008 Relay For Life events, held at locations throughout the county. This marks the fifth year that Wake Radiology has sponsored the annual program.
