We offer consulting and support in the field of radiation protection for medical practices, hospitals and companies. 

Our specialists also offer a modular training and further education concept for entire surgical teams. The contents can be tailored to suit the individual needs of the team. The course can take place either in PSI's modernised and extended X-ray laboratory with an operating theatre or directly in the hospital.
