Procedures / Treatments

  • Radiotherapy

    Radiation therapy uses special equipment to deliver high doses of radiation (beam of x-rays) to cancerous tumours, to kill or damage them so they cannot grow or spread.   Normal cells may be affected by radiation, but most appear to recover fully from the effects of the treatment.… More

Charges

There are three payment options:

  • Direct payment to ARO
  • Payment direct from an overseas agency
  • Health Insurance. If treatment is covered by your health insurance plan, before your treatment planning appointment, prior approval must be obtained from your health insurance organisation. The team at ARO are happy to assist you with this; please contact them on (09) 623 6046 or email them at
