About the department

The Department of Adult and Pediatric Diagnostic, Interventional Radiology at the Charite University Hospital Berlin offers the full range of medical services in these fields. In order to ensure the most accurate and reliable diagnostics, the department has state-of-the-art systems for CT, MRI, PET, ultrasound and X-ray examinations, as well as PET-CT and SPECT-CT hybrid examinations. The department specializes in interventional radiology, namely, imaging-guided therapy. It performs all vascular (for example, vascular recanalization) and non-vascular imaging-guided interventions (for example, tumor ablation). The department is one of the largest and leading medical facilities of this kind in Europe. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Bernd Hamm.

In the field of diagnostic radiology, all modern imaging examinations are carried out. The great advantage of the department is the availability of specially adapted diagnostic systems for the diagnostics of children, for example, ultrasound, X-ray, CT, etc. The cutting-edge medical equipment guarantees an optimal radiation protection, so the diagnostic tests do not harm the health of either children or adults.

It should be noted that the department is a recognized Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery. In the case of minimally invasive interventions, such radiological methods as X-ray, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) serve as imaging-guided tools. This ensures accurate, targeted surgery. In most cases, local anesthesia is used. An exception is the treatment of osteoid osteoma, which is performed under general anesthesia. Minimally invasive procedures include tissue sampling for diagnostic tests, blockade of nerve endings during pain therapy, use of laser techniques for the treatment of tumors and spinal disc herniation, restoration of blood vessel patency in thrombosis, arrest of arterial hemorrhages, blockade of tumor blood supply, etc.

The department's specialists always prefer an individual approach to treatment. Many minimally invasive techniques have been developed or improved by the department's doctors, which guarantees the highest treatment quality. The department annually performs more than 2,000 minimally invasive interventions (from tissue sampling to tumor treatment). Prior to any type of treatment, the department's doctors discuss in detail the therapeutic possibilities with the patient, including therapy risks and alternative treatment methods.

The service range of the department includes:

  • Diagnostic radiology
    • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
      • MRI of organs and anatomical structures of the neck (for example, salivary glands, larynx, trachea)
