LMU Klinikum München (LMU University Hospital Munich) is one of the largest and oldest university hospitals in Germany, the teaching hospital of Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, with around 2000 beds across its two main campuses in Großhadern and the inner city. It is a comprehensive academic centre providing multi-super-specialty care and leading research across oncology, as part of the Comprehensive Cancer Center Munich, alongside cardiology, neuroscience, transplantation and nearly every other field of medicine.

Technologies and equipment
CyberKnife M6
CyberKnife M6 is a robotic system for stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Despite the name, there is no knife and no cutting. A small linear accelerator sits on a computer-guided robotic arm and delivers many thin beams of focused radiation from hundreds of angles. The beams converge on the tumour with sub-millimetre accuracy, so a high dose reaches the target while nearby healthy tissue is spared. Imaging during treatment tracks the tumour continuously, and a motion-synchronisation feature follows targets that move with breathing, such as those in the lung or liver. Treatment is non-invasive and painless, needs no rigid head frame, and is usually given as an outpatient over one to five sessions. The decision is always made individually by the radiation oncology team.
View technology→PET-CT
PET-CT is an advanced hybrid imaging method that combines positron emission tomography with computed tomography in a single scan, mapping both the metabolic activity and the anatomical structure of the body at once. A small dose of a radioactive tracer, often a glucose analogue, is injected and gathers in cells that are working harder than normal, which is typical of many tumours. Because it can show where a disease is active before it changes the shape of an organ, PET-CT is one of the most valuable tools for detecting cancer, working out how far it has spread, and checking whether treatment is working.
View technology→TrueBeam STx
TrueBeam STx is an advanced linear accelerator, a machine that delivers external radiotherapy to treat cancer with very high precision. It shapes powerful radiation beams to match the exact size and shape of a tumour and aims them from many angles, so that a strong dose reaches the target while nearby healthy tissue and organs receive as little as possible. Because it tracks the target and can account for movement such as breathing, it is accurate to within millimetres. This makes it suitable both for conventional, daily radiotherapy and for advanced focused techniques that treat a tumour in only a few sessions. The treatment is non-invasive and painless, with nothing entering the body.
View technology→Da Vinci Robotic Surgery
The da Vinci robotic surgical system lets a surgeon perform complex operations through a few small keyhole incisions instead of one large cut. Sitting at a nearby console, the surgeon controls tiny wristed instruments and a magnified high-definition three-dimensional camera, while the robotic arms translate every hand movement into precise, steady motion inside the body. The system never acts on its own: the surgeon is in full control at all times. For patients, this minimally invasive approach often means less pain, smaller scars, less blood loss and a quicker return to normal life.
View technology→3 Tesla MRI
3 Tesla MRI is a high-field magnetic resonance imaging scanner that produces exceptionally detailed pictures of the inside of the body. The "3 Tesla" refers to the strength of its magnet, which is about twice that of a standard MRI scanner, and this extra power allows sharper, higher-resolution images, often in less time. Like all MRI, it uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves rather than X-rays, so there is no ionising radiation involved. It is especially valuable for examining the brain, the nervous system, joints and soft tissues, helping doctors detect and characterise problems that may be hard to see on other scans.
