Choosing University Hospital for Brachytherapy gives patients access to experienced radiation specialists, advanced treatment technology, and comprehensive cancer care. Established in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital in Basel, Switzerland has 773 beds and provides specialized radiation oncology services.

Brachytherapy may be used to treat selected cancers by delivering radiation directly to or near the tumor. Depending on the cancer being treated, radioactive sources may be inserted through specialized applicators or placed directly into the target tissue. Treatment can involve temporary placement of the radioactive source or, in certain cases, permanent implantation of radioactive seeds. The treatment plan is developed according to the cancer type, stage, location, and patient's overall health.
