Dr. Henderson specializes in the diagnosis and medical treatment of patients with pediatric cancers. She has a particular interest in the care of childhood cancer survivors. Treatment of childhood malignancies has become increasingly successful with a current overall cure rate approaching 80%. However, there are still long-term toxic late effects of chemotherapy and radiation during critical periods of development, including second cancers and damage to vital organ systems. Dr. Hendersons clinical and research area of focus is in survivors of pediatric cancer. Her primary focus has been in
the development of and screening for second cancers following childhood
cancer.
Dr. Henderson received her MPH from Harvard School of Public Health and her MD from the University of Chicago.
