Our Practice

We work closely with colleagues in Medical Oncology, Surgery and Haematology at Grampians Health Services (GH) as well as local private clinicians to offer the best evidence-based care to patients, supported by regular Multidisciplinary Meetings co-ordinated by Grampians Integrated Cancer Services.

BAROC has strong linkages with Metropolitan Tertiary Cancer Centres, in particular Austin Health Radiation Oncology (AHRO) with whom we share dedicated Chart Rounds providing support and shared expertise in the treatment of Head & Neck and Gynaecological malignancies, as well as Stereotactic Techniques (intracranial and extracranial). In addition, the Statewide MR Linac service is located at AHRO.

BAROC is equipped with two Varian Trilogy linear accelerators (to be replaced with Varian Truebeam linear accelerators mid 2025), Siemens CT simulator, and will soon introduce superficial radiotherapy (SXRT) onsite. We provide an outreach service, including SXRT, fortnightly to Stawell. BAROC has two accredited registrar positions. We operate on an Aria 15 Electronic Medical Record and Elekta Monaco Planning System.
