Beschreibung
With more than 13,000 employees representing 160 professions, the Geneva University Hospitals are a reference institution at both national and international levels. To learn more about our institution, take a few minutes to view our 2025 retrospective by clicking here.
The oncology department includes the haematology service and its units, the oncology service and its units, the radio-oncology service and its unit, and the precision oncology service.
In response to the constant increase in cancer prevalence and the complexity of diagnostic and therapeutic management, the aim is to facilitate the care of oncology patients by grouping hospitalisation units and outpatient activities, as well as meeting patient expectations (quality of reception, quality of care, care adapted to current population requirements).
The oncology department also aims to anticipate the needs of hospitalised patients (bone marrow transplant, cell therapy, immunotherapy, chemotherapy, etc.), strengthen nursing and medical expertise, and promote research and innovation.
Each year, our Radio-Oncology Service treats more than 1,100 patients, offering an exceptional opportunity to have a significant impact on the lives of people with cancer.
Working within a multidisciplinary team composed of 19 MRTs, 3 dosimetrist MRTs, 7 medical physicists, 12 radiation oncologists, 8 dedicated nurses, and 1 healthcare assistant, your mission is to provide quality care to patients treated in the service.
Our technical platform includes state-of-the-art equipment, including a SIEMENS® CT-Go-Sim simulation system, an Eclipse dosimetry system, two VARIAN® linear accelerators equipped with a multileaf collimator with IGRT, as well as an ACCURAY® linear accelerator dedicated to stereotactic radiotherapy treatments: Cyberknife.
We also work with treatment techniques such as VMAT, SBRT, SRS (radiosurgery), TBI (total body irradiation), hyperthermia, electron treatments, and orthovoltage. The accelerators have real-time imaging systems, CBCT, Calypso, and VisionRT® repositioning recognition systems.
We also have a source projector for brachytherapy: HDR (high dose rate), an ALBA® superficial hyperthermia unit, an orthovoltage device, and an intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) device. We also use quality control systems and PTW dosimeters (Octavius, Starcheck, RTQA films) as well as a Lucy® phantom for stereotactic treatment control.
You participate in administrative procedures to prepare and check treatment files to ensure strict compliance with treatment plans.
You perform patient positioning using appropriate immobilisation accessories.
You ensure the overall care of patients for diagnostic examinations and treatments.
You manage patients using various treatment methods, including techniques associated with radiotherapy, such as the use of a superficial hyperthermia machine.
You actively participate in the development of protocols and new techniques with a view to continuous improvement.
You participate in the supervision of students.
You work in a team of 19 MRTs, in interprofessional collaboration with other colleagues in the service (doctors, physicists, nurses).
