Children's Healthcare of Atlanta

The Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta offers a team of providers with specialized expertise in treating all forms of childhood brain and spinal cord tumors. Each year, our program cares for more than 750 children and young adults with central nervous system (CNS) tumors, making us one of the largest treatment center for pediatric brain cancer in the country.

By using diverse treatment protocols, including state-of-the-art neurosurgical techniques, radiation treatment, chemotherapy with peripheral blood stem cell transplantation, and highly innovative phase I and phase II trials of novel agents for children whose cancer has relapsed or is not responding to standard treatment, we are able to offer comprehensive medical care for patients of all ages and with all stages of disease. Combining the latest proven technology and research with a caring, child-friendly approach makes the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center a top choice for the treatment of childhood brain and spinal cord tumors.

We are also proud of our numerous basic science researchers who are focused on developing novel science that focuses on curing the deadliest of brain cancers.
