Welcome to the RadioChirurgicum, Göppingen!


In the last 20 years, cancer and tumour treatment has progressed rapidly. But surgeries and newly developed medications are not the only tools helping to treat various diseases more effectively and heal more patients.

Radiotherapy nowadays is able to offer gentle and highly effective treatment, which one could only dream of a few years ago.

One of these possibilities is the CyberKnife®. It is the first robot guided system designed for high precision radiotherapy. It’s innovative, highly effective and has very little side effects. It has made the treatment of many patients significantly easier.

With the CyberKnife®, a variety of tumours throughout the body can be treated non-invasive, gently, pain free and effectively.

The RadioChirurgicum / CyberKnife® Südwest in Göppingen was founded in summer 2013, being the first of its kind in southern Germany. The RadioChirurgicum / CyberKnife® Südwest is a centre for high precision radiotherapy and radiosurgery. It is directly attached to the clinic for radiotherapy and the radio oncological focus of the Alb Fils Klinken.

Indications Overview


Which kinds of tumours can be treated with the CyberKnife®?

Radiosurgery with the CyberKnife® is especially suitable for treating benign tumours of the brain and skull base. Examples are meningiomas, acoustic neuromas, craniopharyngiomas and other benign and malignant tumours of the brain. It is also very suitable as a therapy for brain metastases.

The system also offers new possibilities for non-invasive radiosurgery treatment of tumours and metastases on the spine and the entire core of the body. Because of its ability to capture moving targets in real time, the system has definite advantages for treating tumours in the moving organs, like lungs, liver, kidneys and adrenal glands.
