Hyperthermia
News
In these difficult times our thoughts are with those members of the medical community battling the coronavirus and we want to recognize the hard work being carried out by all the clinics and staff dealing with the crisis.
While many congresses pertinent to hyperthermia have been cancelled due to the pandemic, ESTRO has been postponed and is now planned for the start of August. Assuming the Congress takes place, we will include some information about our hyperthermia lunch symposium in the next time soon.
Adjacent to this year’s ESTRO, Vienna will also be hosting the World Congress of Brachytherapy. In this connection we would like to suggest you download our new brochure on brachytherapy.
