As the only DoD Cancer Center of Excellence, the Murtha Cancer Center (MCC) has dedicated itself to a clear and compelling mission: to improve the diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment of Military Health System (MHS) cancer patients through innovative clinical care, research, and education. Using professional and community outreach, education, and prevention services we enhance the readiness of the military, its families, and beneficiaries. The MCC annual report displays our accomplishments and the current and future strategic initiatives for the cancer center.
