The Department of Radiation Oncology and Radiation Therapy specializes in various types of modern radiation therapy. The team of the department's doctors admits patients with malignant and benign tumors, as well as with certain degenerative diseases. During consultations, specialists tell patients in detail about the types of radiation therapy, the benefits and risks of a particular type of irradiation. The medical facility has an excellent technical base, so it offers innovative radiation techniques such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and stereotactic radiation therapy. In most cases, radiation therapy is performed on an outpatient basis, but patients receiving chemoradiotherapy and patients with particularly complex clinical cases still require hospitalization. Each treatment regimen is carefully planned according to the patient's clinical data, and therefore doctors achieve an optimal therapeutic effect. After completing the course of treatment, patients are advised to undergo regular follow-up examinations.
