Radiotherapy

The professorship Radiation Oncology contains the development of Radiation Oncology in it full depth. De vast majority of the oncological patients receive somewhere in their treatment radiotherapy. Radiation Oncology is therefore one of the main pillars of oncological treatment. My focus of research and development is at the common field of technique / physics and patient care. Main focus of research and development is now on eye melanoma treatment with protons which in The Netherlands is now started in the year of my appointment at Leiden University.
