Choosing University Hospital for Radiation Therapy provides patients with access to experienced radiation oncology specialists, advanced treatment-planning systems, and comprehensive cancer care. Established in 1842, the SAC hospital in Basel, Switzerland has 773 beds and provides specialized oncology services.

Radiation Therapy may be considered for patients with localised or regionally advanced cancer, depending on the tumor type and treatment goals. It may be administered before surgery to reduce tumor size, after surgery to reduce the risk of recurrence, alongside systemic treatment, or as a palliative treatment to relieve symptoms such as pain or bleeding. Radiation oncologists use imaging and computerised planning to determine the treatment field and radiation dose. Follow-up care helps evaluate tumor response and manage potential side effects.
