High-precision outpatient therapy: Effective & gentle

With modern radiosurgery, we treat benign and malignant tumors in a targeted and gentle manner – without surgery.

Thanks to innovative technologies like the CyberKnife and ZAP-X, we can destroy tumor cells with the utmost precision while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. An intelligent robotic system continuously adapts to natural organ movements or changes in position to treat the tumor with pinpoint accuracy.

Your treatment is performed in a relaxed position and often requires only a single session. After therapy, you can usually return home immediately and resume your usual activities.

We would be happy to discuss with you in person whether the innovative methods of modern radiosurgery are suitable for you and your situation.

Pain-free:
You lie quietly on a couch while the precision robot moves quietly around you.
Without Anesthesia:
You can speak to your treating medical team or relatives at any time or even take a short break from treatment.
Without surgical risks:
Our non-invasive therapy eliminates the stress and complications of a surgical procedure.
No or only minor side effects:
If side effects occur in rare cases, most patients recover quickly after treatment. 
No inpatient hospital stay:
With a high level of outpatient treatment comfort, you can return home immediately after your therapy and return to your normal everyday life.

Treatment process: 5 steps to a better quality of life

Our quick and straightforward approach for you: In the first step, we carefully assess whether radiosurgical treatment is suitable for your case. We analyze existing findings and available imaging materials (e.g., CT, MRI, PET-CT scans). If CyberKnife or ZAP-X therapy is a suitable option for you, we will promptly arrange a personal consultation.

A comprehensive consultation with you and our interdisciplinary treatment team forms the basis for the further course of treatment. Together, we will discuss your diagnosis, possible treatment options, and clarify any outstanding questions step by step. We place great importance on transparency so that you know exactly what to expect.

Precise treatment preparation that takes your personal needs and wishes into account is essential for treatment success. Based on your individual situation and with the help of state-of-the-art technologies (e.g., thin-slice MRI, PET imaging), our experts will develop the optimal treatment plan for you.

Radiosurgical treatment with the precision robot is painless and non-invasive. You rest on the treatment couch in your normal clothes in a relaxed atmosphere, while the highly specialized therapy unit rotates around you. Focused from different angles, the treatment delivers a therapeutic dose that destroys the diseased tissue. The session lasts an average of 30 minutes.

After your treatment, you'll have a detailed final consultation. You'll also receive guidance on aftercare and will remain in close contact with our team. Your well-being and quality of life remain our focus – even after your treatment is complete.
