The center is a partnership between Arkansas Urology and AKSM/Oncology, a national provider of IMRT/IGRT treatment for prostate cancer. It specializes in external beam radiation therapy, which involves a series of daily treatments that deliver a carefully focused beam of radiation from a machine outside the body. The practice uses intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), a technology that tailors each treatment to the individual patient. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) determine the exact location of the tumor, allowing the radiation oncologist to deliver precise radiation doses while varying the intensity of each beam to minimize damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) is used alongside IMRT to ensure the treatment is delivered with millimeter precision. Before treatments begin, a urologist implants small fiducial markers into the prostate during a simple procedure similar to a biopsy, serving as a reference point since the prostate moves daily. Advanced imaging techniques locate these markers during each treatment session.

The center is located at 1300 Centerview Dr A, about 0.1 miles from Kanis Road and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Little Rock Field Office, and roughly 0.2 miles from Pinnacle Pointe Hospital.

The practice has earned a positive rating from the customers who have reviewed it, reflecting the care it provides in prostate cancer treatment.
