treatment protocols

Standardisation of treatment protocols

We are working with our clinical teams across the network  to standardise radiotherapy protocols to ensure  patients access the same treatment whichever centre they attend. 


There are now network protocols in place for breast cancer, prostate cancer and rectal cancers. This means that patients coming for radiotherapy at The James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough and The Northern Centres for Cancer Care at Newcastle and Carlisle will all have access to the same treatment.


We have also made some improvements to treatment techniques for breast radiotherapy through this process. 


The following treatment protocols are in draft form and should be finalised soon; 

  • Lymphoma
  • Sarcoma
  • Head and neck


We have agreed in principle the treatment protocols for the following cancer groups;

  • Gynaecological
  • Brain and central nervous system
  • Anal


We will continue to update this page with further progress.



Agreed protocols can be found here
