Located just outside Durham, NC, the Butner Federal Correctional Complex (FCC) houses over 4,000 medium, minimum, and low security prisoners. The Federal Medical Center (FMC) is an administrative facility where about 950 male inmates of all security levels reside. Over 100 USPHS Commissioned Corps officers are stationed at Butner FMC, which also lays claim to being the first in the Federal Prison System to do oncology and orthopedic surgery in house and to have a linear accelerator, MRI, CT, and PET scan.
The radiation therapy unit at FMC Butner boasts a linear accelerator, CT, MRI, PET, U/S, X-ray, and nuclear medicine. In addition, a PACs system is in place and being implemented.
