About
The new MIBG Program at Nationwide Children’s offers an innovative treatment option for oncology patients, specifically with high risk neuroblastoma. The treatment provides an alternative to other therapies with targeted meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG). The intravenous dose of MIBG has proven to yield successful results with this unique patient population. The addition of this service allows us to deliver cutting-edge therapy, but in a way that keeps the pediatric patient in mind.
