Mr. Scott Jerome-Parks with his wife,

Carmen, on the day he received his

diagnosis of tongue cancer. For his

treatment, he chose St. Vincent's

Hospital in Manhattan, which was

promoting a new linear accelerator and a

treatment called Intensity Modulated

Radiation Therapy, which could more

precisely shape and modulate the

radiation beam. Treatment started March

8, 2005

Later his wife has mentioned that maybe

they should have chosen the world known

MSKCC, however, Jerome insisted on this

new technology.
