Our Story

Based at the Alan Walker Cancer Care Centre on the grounds of the Royal Darwin Hospital, we offer the latest range of Radiation Oncology treatment technology without the need to travel interstate.

NTRO has rapidly gained the reputation as a regional centre of excellence since our inception in January 2010, as we developed and implemented the latest treatment protocols such as Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), VoluMetric Arc Radiotherapy (VMAT), Image Guided RadioTherapy with Adaptive Protocol (IGRT-ART), Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR), Deep Inspiration Breath Hold Radiotherapy (DIBH) and Stereotactic RadioSurgery (SRS) using the latest technology and equipment.
