Comprehensive care for lung cancer — from precise diagnostics to individualized treatment planning in an interdisciplinary tumor board.

On this page:

At the Lung Center at Döbling Private Hospital, patients with lung cancer receive comprehensive care. The foundation is an interdisciplinary tumor board, where specialists from different medical disciplines jointly review all findings and develop individualized treatment recommendations.

Our modern treatment concept combines diagnostics, treatment planning, surgical treatment, and follow-up care under one roof. Close collaboration between all involved specialties helps ensure that every treatment decision is based on the latest medical evidence.

Interdisciplinary expertise for optimal treatment decisions

Individualized review by the tumor board

Every case is discussed by the interdisciplinary tumor board. Specialists from different disciplines jointly assess the available findings and develop an individualized treatment recommendation. This provides patients with a comprehensive, coordinated basis for treatment decisions.

Modern diagnostics as the foundation of treatment

Precise diagnostics are essential for selecting the appropriate therapy. Depending on the clinical question, pulmonary function tests, blood tests, CT scans, and bronchoscopies may be used. EBUS bronchoscopy can also be performed when appropriate.

Gentle surgical treatment options

Modern minimally invasive techniques are well established in the surgical treatment of lung cancer. These procedures can provide effective treatment with less physical strain for patients and shorter hospital stays.

Individualized treatment based on the latest evidence

Successful treatment is based on the strategic combination of non-surgical and surgical measures. All treatment decisions are made individually and implemented according to current medical evidence.
