Particle Therapy
MedAustron offers an innovative form of radiation therapy (ion beam therapy, particle therapy) using protons and carbon ions. Compared to conventional radiation therapy, this treatment is able to reduce radiation exposure to adjacent healthy tissue and spares the tissue behind the tumor almost entirely. >>
Indications
Especially those patients, whose tumors can’t be treated adequately with conventional radiation therapy or whose tumors are located near radio-sensitive organs or tissues, will immensely profit from ion beam therapy. >>
