Key clinical areas include the diagnostics and treatment of tumors, diseases of the thyroid gland, kidneys, brain and heart. For this purpose, doctors have at their disposal the necessary medical equipment of the latest generation: devices for PET, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, etc. After comprehensive diagnostics, doctors of the medical facility assess the advisability of radioisotope therapy. In 2020, there was founded the Section for Theranostics – an innovative approach in medicine, providing for the creation of medications that can be simultaneously used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The department was one of the first specialized medical institutions of its kind in Germany and has been providing patients with high-quality medical care for many years.
The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Wolfgang Weber. This is an excellent specialist in his field of competence, who was educated in Germany, after which he was trained at the University of California, Los Angeles, and worked for almost 5 years in a senior position at the world-famous Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in the USA. The doctor's general clinical experience is about 20 years. His key specialization is radionuclide cancer therapy. Prof. Weber is the author of more than 250 articles in prestigious scientific journals, and also actively publishes his works on medical Internet resources.
The department has 13 beds, which makes it the largest medical facility in Germany, specializing in the diagnostics and treatment with radioactive isotopes. With more than 5,500 outpatient thyroid examinations, more than 5,000 PET scans, more than 2,000 conventional nuclear medicine examinations, as well as more than 800 inpatients every year, the Department of Nuclear Medicine at the University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich is one of the most respected centers of nuclear medicine throughout Europe.
The department's medical team consists of 5 senior physicians and 11 assistant physicians, 15 technicians, 3 nurses with specialized PET training, and 11 nursing nurses. To provide interdisciplinary, comprehensive medical care, the department works closely with other departments of the hospital. In addition, the department is part of the Roman Herzog Comprehensive Cancer Center (Roman-Herzog-Krebszentrums), which contributes to the most effective cancer therapy.
The most significant achievements of the department should also be noted – the recognition as a certified Center of Excellence for the diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (certificate of the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS)), as well as the certification of the PET-CT Section by the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM).

About hospital
The University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich was founded in 1834. It combines long traditions with the very latest advances in modern medicine. The medical facility includes 33 specialized departments and 20 interdisciplinary centers, where patients can receive top-class medical care in all medical fields.
The hospital annually admits more than 65,000 inpatients for diagnostics and treatment, and about 250,000 outpatients receive effective medical care. The hospital also performs more than 40,000 surgical procedures every year, and about 2,100 babies are born here annually. One of the most significant achievements of the medical facility can be called the first transplantation of both arms above the elbow performed in 2008. The surgery that lasted 15 hours, and in which 40 doctors of various medical specialties took part, became a real sensation in the scientific world. Thanks to a unique surgical procedure, the doctors managed to give the patient new hands.
In addition, the employees of the hospital are actively involved in research activities, in which they study various diseases, as well as develop new therapeutic options for their treatment. It should be noted that the research institutes of the hospital are among the most reputable research organizations in the world. A striking example can be considered the Roman Herzog Comprehensive Cancer Center, whose specialists cooperate closely with the Comprehensive Cancer Center Munich in order to find new treatment methods for cancers.
The university hospital has a strict quality management system to maintain a high level of patient care. Since 2011, the hospital has been certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 at the national and international level. The medical facility was also recertified by TÜV Rheinland in 2020.
The hospital annually provides medical services not only to German citizens, but also to thousands of patients from different countries of the world. This indicates that the hospital has an excellent reputation in the international medical arena and takes on the most complex clinical cases where other medical centers are unable to help the patient.
