Radiotherapy Oncology Service

The Radiation Oncology Department is part of the Hospital Clínic Barcelona Institute of Cancer and Blood Diseases.

It has been awarded ISO 9001 certification, which guarantees a firm commitment to quality and continuous improvement.

Radiation oncology is a branch of clinical medicine that uses ionizing radiation, alone or in combination with other therapeutic modalities, to treat cancer and other non-neoplastic diseases.

The field of action of the specialty includes the study and treatment of cancer patients susceptible to radiation treatment. It is estimated that about 60% of cancer patients will receive radiation therapy at some point during their illness. The Deparment is made up of specialists with a high degree of professionalism and accredited experience, both clinical and technological.

The Department has two centres, one on Carrer Villarroel in Barcelona and the other in Granollers.
