Department of Radiation Therapy and Radiation Oncology
The Department of Radiation Therapy and Radiation Oncology provides all the modern types of radiation therapy at the highest level. The department's doctors work on advanced medical equipment, due to which they can effectively irradiate pathological foci, while ensuring minimal impact on the adjacent healthy tissues. The key focus in clinical practice is on the treatment of malignant diseases of various localization. In addition, the specialists have successful experience in the treatment of chronic pain in joints and bones, which significantly impair the quality of life of a person by limiting his mobility. Supportive radiation therapy is also within the competence of the department's radiation therapists. Prior to any radiation therapy, it is carefully planned taking into account the results of computed tomography. The radiation dose and the duration of the course of treatment are individually selected for each patient, since each clinical case requires a special approach. After radiation therapy, the patient undergoes regular follow-up diagnostic examinations to avoid cancer recurrence.
