Overview
Established in 2010, St Luke’s Radiation Oncology Network (SLRON) operates from three Dublin locations – St Luke’s Hospital Rathgar and St Luke’s Radiation Oncology Centres on the campuses of St James and Beaumont Hospitals.

Currently there are 14 linear accelerators within the Network, 4 in each of the centres at BC & SJC, and 6 on the Rathgar site. There are 2 CT scanners per centre. Both St James and Beaumont centres have an MRI unit. St Luke’s hospital houses the brachytherapy and superficial units.
SLRON has a long history of involvement in clinical trials and has an active Clinical Trials Unit.
SLRON serves as the principal teaching hospital for the Trinity College Dublin (TCD) BSc Radiation Therapy programme, a CORU-accredited four-year degree delivered by TCD. Across its network, SLRON accommodates approximately 136 students annually, providing structured clinical placements from first year through to final year. Students gain supervised experience across radiotherapy disciplines, including treatment delivery, planning, and patient care.
