“IOERT is becoming the gold standard in the successful treatment of cancer,” says Ernesto G.

German hospitals are all looking to provide their patients the best cancer treatment possible—and that is IOERT. We are very proud to start cooperating with helios-kliniken.de because we understand the importance from both a treatment and medical science aspect and the potential they will be able to bring in terms of future treatments.
