Patients from all over Europe have been treated successfully with protons over the last 30 years at PSI. A highly qualified team of radiation oncologists, medical physicists, radiation therapists and further specialists take care of the patients.
Patient Selection
Patients are selected for proton therapy based on the greater medical benefits they could gain in comparison to conventional therapies. Once a week our team holds a Tumor Board Meeting, where all potential cases are presented, and their indications for therapy at CPT are reviewed and discussed. When a patient is accepted for treatment by the Tumor Board, an invitation to the CPT for an informative conversation is issued.
Tumorboard
Our tumour board usually takes place on Thursdays at 13:00 hours. It is a hybrid event on site at the ZPT and virtually via video conference. If you would like to participate as a physician, please contact our patient office.
Here you can find out how the treatment of deep-seated tumours and eye tumours is performed.
Protons for Babies and Children
For very young patients, cancer treatment needs to be particularly effective but also very sparing, which is why CPT at PSI is specialised in the treatment of children.
