University Hospital

Odense University Hospital is situated in the southern region of Denmark.

The department of oncology provides comprehensive radiotherapy treatments of high international standard. The treatments are given by eight linear accelerators, one brachytherapy unit or one kV therapy unit. The radiotherapy equipment consists of two Siemens Primus and six Elekta accelerators, one PDR brachytherapy unit from Nucletron and one kV unit from Gulmay. Four Elekta accelerators are Synergy Platforms equipped with portal image (iView) and cone beam CT (XVI); the remaining two are upgraded Philips SL20 machines with iView.

Siemens Somatom and Philips Brilliance Big Bore CT-scanners are used for diagnostic CT-scans.

Pinnacle and Plato are used for treatment planning.

MosaiQ is the backbone for booking, patient data registration, recording and verification.
