Eckert & Ziegler Radiation Therapy

Eckert & Ziegler Radiation Therapy as one of the four business units of the Eckert & Ziegler Medical Segment. Its core business is the production and distribution of medical products for the treatment of cancer using brachytherapy.
 
Brachytherapy is a form of radiotherapy that treats cancer by irradiation from a short distance. Two different forms of brachytherapy are used today: in permanent brachytherapy, a small radioactive source is implanted in the body, while in temporary brachytherapy, the radioactive source is placed directly inside or close to the site of the tumor for a limited and defined period. 

Eckert & Ziegler Radiation Therapy offers a portfolio of brachytherapy products, which comprises permanent prostate implants so called seeds in a loose and stranded form, as well as ophthalmic applicators for the treatment of eye tumors. 

Besides our dedicated brachytherapy products, Eckert & Ziegler Radiation Therapy offers a  portfolio of EBRT accessories and x-ray therapy.
