Asklepios Hospital Barmbek
At Asklepios Medical Group radiation for throat cancer is applied in the Hermann Holthusen Institute for Radiation Therapy. Oncologists utilize IGRT (irradiation combined with imaging techniques) and VMAT (computer-guided precise multi-dimensional irradiation) techniques to deliver millimeter-precise treatments. As a result, patients experience less side-effects and more healthy tissues remain intact. Additionally, the speed of irradiation process is increased.
The cost of radiation therapy for throat cancer depends on the patient condition and quantity of radiotherapy sessions. The price is calculated for each person individually. Full course of radiotherapy can take 3-8 weeks.
