Chordoma care at RadioOnkologie im Vosspalais in Berlin-Mitte includes advanced radiation therapy and imaging; CT scans may cost around $600. Prof. Dr. S. Marnitz brings over 20 years of radiation oncology experience and advises German and French health bodies on proton therapy.
Imaging and lab tests help assess the tumor and map the area for radiation planning. Available tests include:
The clinic offers external-beam, stereotactic, and combined radiation approaches. Treatment prices are quoted case by case, and no fixed treatment price is listed.
Prof. Dr. S. Marnitz trained at Charité Berlin and University Hospital Essen. His memberships include ESTRO, ASTRO, and EORTC. The clinic lists ASCO among its accreditations.
Before each session, the OPASCA Safety Suite uses biometric recognition to check patient identity. The clinic describes this as the first use of the system in Germany. A 24/7 inpatient partnership with nearby MEO Clinic is also available. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed.

The clinic holds accreditation from the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). Its medical team includes board-certified specialists and professors. Prof. Dr. med. S. Marnitz leads the team with around 20 years of experience in radiation oncology.
Physicians at the clinic trained at recognized German institutions:
The doctors hold memberships in major international organizations, including ESTRO, ASTRO, and EORTC. Prof. Marnitz also advises the French Cancer Institute and the German Joint Federal Committee on proton therapy.
The practice treats all cancers requiring radiation, including breast, prostate, lung, and brain tumors. The team uses Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) to deliver precise doses while sparing surrounding tissues. Specialists adjust the radiation volume as tumors shrink during treatment.
For breast and lung tumors, the clinic uses the Ambient Lightning technique. This system monitors breathing phases during deep inspiration breath-hold through surface detection. Room lights change color to give patients immediate feedback. If the breathing phase isn't ideal, the device automatically stops to protect healthy organs.
Specialists also provide focused treatments for various conditions:
The clinic coordinates closely with partners when patients need combined hormone therapy or chemotherapy.
The practice is built around the OPASCA Safety Suite for high accuracy and patient orientation. Upon arrival, patients register at a Welcome-Terminal and receive a numeric pass. This number-based system keeps all corridor monitor displays discreet. Screens guide patients directly to the planning CT, radiation device, or consultation rooms.
Security protocols include biometric recognition before every session. This step makes patient mix-ups impossible. The therapy area also has camera surveillance and a communication system, so patients and companions can speak via screen and sound during procedures.
A dedicated Companion App supports patients throughout treatment. It handles appointment management, side-effect information, and direct feedback after sessions.
The clinic performs essential oncological diagnostics to create precise treatment plans. Available imaging and tests include:
These tools help determine exact tumor stage and lymph node involvement before starting therapy.
International patients receive full logistical support, including visa organization and flight booking assistance. The practice coordinates hotel accommodations for patients and family members. While the practice is an outpatient clinic, it partners with the nearby MEO Clinic for 24/7 inpatient admission. Patients who prefer hospital care during radiotherapy can stay there. Online consultations are available to discuss treatment options before traveling to Berlin.
