Tomotherapy

We have a state-of-the-art device for radiotherapy, so-called helical tomotherapy. It is an irradiator with a special construction, which enables the spiral delivery of a dose of radiation into the patient's body. This system combines high accuracy, maximum economy and universal use.

With the help of tomotherapy, we are able to treat all malignant tumors that require the application of ionizing radiation. We specialize mainly in breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancer, malignant lymphomas and gastrointestinal tumors. As one of the few in the Czech Republic, we also perform ultra-precise, so-called stereotactic radiotherapy, especially for lung tumors and also for isolated metastases anywhere in the body. To accurately locate the tumor site, we use the so-called functional imaging using PET / CT with special substances (choline, thymidine, fluciclovin). To speed up and improve the process of radiotherapy, we have also introduced advanced tools based on the principle of artificial intelligence.
