Service mission
The Radiotherapy department uses X-rays to progressively destroy cancer cells. Healthy cells are also affected, but their resistance and capacity for recovery enable them to repair themselves between each treatment session. This is why the prescribed dose of radiation is spread over several sessions. This number is adapted to each patient's individual case. Each treatment is personalized.
Radiotherapy treatment is a multi-stage process involving a number of different professionals at the Center (radiation oncologists, interns, medical physicists, dosimetrists, medical electroradiology technicians, nurses' aides, pediatric coordinator, health executive, dietician, medical secretaries, biomedical technicians, hospital service staff).

Focus on... the Children's Radiation Therapy Area
The radiotherapy department currently treats around 30 children and adolescents a year, aged between 1 and 18. These "mini-patients" are all treated without general anesthesia. The radiotherapy department team, keen to welcome and care for these children in the best possible conditions, was able, thanks to the generosity of donors, to open a waiting area dedicated to children in 2017, with a magnificent 4m x 2m x 1m aquarium, games and furniture adapted to their size.
