About the Department of Mammology at University Hospital Heidelberg

The Department of Mammology at the University Hospital Heidelberg offers the full range of modern diagnostics and treatment of breast diseases. Of particular interest to the department's specialists is breast cancer therapy. More than 600 patients with such a diagnosis are treated here annually. The treatment is based on an individual approach, the use of advanced techniques, which often allow the doctor to avoid the radical resection. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Florian Schütz.

  • Multimodal breast diagnostics
    • Digital mammography with tomosynthesis
    • Stereotactic vacuum-assisted biopsy and marking

    • MR mammography
  • Surgical treatment methods
    • Simple breast-conserving surgeries
    • Complex breast-conserving operations using oncoplastic techniques (including plastic surgery with sliding skin grafts, tumor-adapted reduction interventions, mastopexy, plastic surgery using local flaps, lipofilling)
