Services

Dr. de Mûelenaere provides a full suite of radiation oncology services that integrate state-of-the-art technology with personalized care. He uses modern equipment such as linear accelerators, high-precision imaging systems, and advanced treatment planning software. His services include:

• External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT): He delivers high-energy beams that target and destroy cancer cells with accuracy. This method optimizes dose delivery while protecting healthy tissues.
• Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT): He employs IMRT to modulate radiation doses precisely. Consequently, this technique minimizes exposure to surrounding non-cancerous tissues and reduces side effects.
• Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS): He administers SRS to deliver concentrated high-dose radiation with pinpoint accuracy. Frequently, this treatment benefits patients with brain and spinal tumors by sparing adjacent structures.
• Brachytherapy: He places radioactive sources directly into or near the tumor. This technique provides high-dose radiation locally while preserving nearby healthy cells.

Additionally, he specializes in managing breast, gynaecological, prostate, head and neck, and neuro-oncology cases. He customizes treatment plans based on each patient’s unique clinical profile. Consequently, his approach enhances treatment precision and minimizes side effects. Moreover, his team supports patients throughout every step, ensuring an engaging and compassionate care experience.
