About the clinic

Radiotherapy for lung cancer at Amethyst Radiotherapy Austria in Vienna uses high-precision technology to target tumors while protecting healthy tissue. This center is part of the Amethyst Healthcare Group, one of the largest radiotherapy networks in Europe. The facility is located within Wiener Privatklinik and is recognized in Newsweek's World's Best Hospitals 2026 list.

Advanced Radiation Technology

The clinic uses the Elekta Versa HD linear accelerator for external beam radiotherapy. This system provides accuracy within 1 mm for small lung tumors. To maintain this precision, the facility uses a HexaPOD couch. This specialized bed moves in six different directions to keep the patient in the exact position needed. Doctors use various techniques to treat lung cancer, including:

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT): A non-invasive alternative to surgery for small tumors.
Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT): Delivers radiation doses quickly as the machine rotates around the patient.
Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT): Shapes the radiation beams to match the tumor's specific size.
Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT): Uses repeated imaging to track the tumor during treatment.

Personalized Treatment Process

Treatment begins with an assessment using CT, MRI, and PET scans. These images help doctors create a plan tailored to the patient's specific anatomy. For some indications, the course of stereotactic radiosurgery takes about 1.5 weeks. Patients typically attend 3 to 8 sessions, and each session lasts around 10 minutes. This short schedule helps patients return to their daily routines faster than traditional radiation protocols.

Specialist Expertise

Radiation oncologists at the clinic focus on complex lung cancer cases. Dr. David Kuczer is an internationally recognized expert who has published research on SBRT for non-small cell lung cancer. Dr. Tubin specializes in treating large, complex, and inoperable tumors. These specialists work together to manage tumors in the lungs, liver, and other organs using integrated imaging systems. The clinic also helps international patients by providing video consultations and assistance with travel or accommodation in Vienna.

Excellent medical service and very friendly staff! I was treated at Amethyst Vienna in May 2023. It was very worrying to learn I had an acoustic neuroma. Although the tumor was pressing on my trigeminal nerve and the pain was severe, an 11-hour operation was out of the question for me. Fortunately, I found Dr. Kuczer online, and after five sessions of stereotactic radiotherapy, I am pain-free again. The radiotherapy had virtually no side effects. Many thanks to the professional team and the excellent treatment.

My wife was treated for cancer at the Vienna General Hospital (AKH) and given up on. Then we learned about radiation therapy and contacted the clinic. She was given hope that the radiation therapy would help, but she had to pay a large sum for the treatment. She underwent radiation therapy many times and was also hospitalized. But a few weeks later, she died.
