Hasan Murshed, M.D., M.S., D.A.B.R. Every patient is under the care of a radiation oncologist who is a cancer specialist with expertise in the application of radiation therapy as it is used in the multimodality management of cancer. The radiation oncologists have particular expertise with specific types of cancer. This ensures that your physician is one who focuses on your specific type of cancer. 'I am proud to say that Bay County is my only practice location and all my patients get my personal attention and care as they always deserve.'

Dr. Murshed earned his medical degree from Dhaka University in Bangladesh and served as an intern and Medical Officer at Mymenshing Medical College in Bangladesh.  He received a Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Clinical Medical Physics at Louisiana State University. He was a Post Graduate Year ("PGY") Resident, Levels II and III, at the Radiation Oncology Department, National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH). He was PGY Chief Resident, Levels IV and V, in Radiation Oncology at the University of Alabama in Birmingham and completed his residency in 2002.

Dr. Murshed earned a PGY IMRT/Gating Fellowship, Level VI, in Radiation Oncology at the MD Anderson Cancer Center from 2002 to 2003.  During the Fellowship he studied the application of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), the latest technique in Radation Oncology. Using IMRT, it may be possible to further limit the exact amount of radiation that is received by normal tissues that are near the tumor, such as salivary glands in Head and Neck cancers, heart in breast cancers, bladder and rectum in prostate caners.  In some situations, this may also allow a higher dose of radiation to be delivered to the tumor, increasing the chance of a cure. Dr. Murshed is one of the only few Radiation Oncologists in the United States who has undergone a formal fellowship training at MD Anderson Cancer Center to obtain this most recent technique for delivering IMRT radiation thrapy and has been using IMRT successfully to treat his patients for last four (4) years.

During his residency and fellowship training he has been mentored and trained by nations leading academics and giants in Radiation Oncology, such as Dr. Norm Coleman of National Cancer Institute (NCI), Dr. James Bonner of UAB-Birmingham, Drs. Jim Cox, Ritusko Komaki, Kian Ang and Deborah Kuban of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, to name a few. He remains in communication with academics to remain abreast of the most upto-date treatments for his patients. Dr. Murshed is an active participant in national RTOG clincial trials which enables his patients to receive the most upto-date and innovative treatment possible in a community setting in Panama City, FL.

Dr. Murshed received his Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduate (ECFMG) Certificate in 1996. Dr. Murshed is double boarded and received an American Board of Radiology Certificate in Therapeutic Physics in 1997, and an American Board of Radiology Certificate in Radiation Oncology in 2003. He received medical licenses from the State of Alabama in 1999, and the States of Florida and Georgia in 2003.

Dr. Murshed's Master's Degree research thesis involved radiation therapy for lung cancer, in addition he has published on several topics, including a popular Radation Oncology text book for the residents, IMRT for lung cancer, head and neck cancer, endometrial cancer, prostate cencer and soft tissue sarcome.
