5. Roswell Park Cancer Institute, The US
The Roswell Park Cancer Institute ranks 5th in our list of best cancer hospitals in the world. It is the country’s first cancer center. Founded in 1898, the center takes pride in its multidisciplinary approach to treating cancer. The institute was built on the vision of eminent surgeon Dr. Roswell Park who rightfully predicted that cancer would become the leading cause of death in the U.S. and around the world. The center is known for its Quality Improvement Program that aims to provide “high-quality, cost-effective patient care, while preserving and enhancing the dignity, humanity, and knowledge of the patients served.”
The Institute is launching the first clinical trial in the U.S. for a lung cancer treatment called CIMAvax-EGF® vaccine. Some of its advanced cancer technologies include balloon kyphoplasty, electro nerve stimulation, interventional radiology, photodynamic therapy advanced endoscopy, interventional pulmonology, and nuclear medicine.
