MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - SCaroNews -- Coastal Cancer Center is excited to announce the groundbreaking of its new state-of-the-art Radiation Oncology Center in Myrtle Beach. "As our community grows, we are proud to expand alongside it," said Emily Z. Touloukian, D.O., President and CEO of Coastal Cancer Center, which incorporated radiation services in 2024 to support the needs of the growing community.

The 13,400-square-foot facility will feature two advanced linear accelerators, with plans to expand to three in the future. Linear accelerators (LINACs) utilize high-energy x-rays or electrons to target cancerous tumors precisely, while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This advanced technology enhances treatment efficacy and allows for customized care that aligns with each patient's unique needs.
