Atrys Oncology Network

Atrys has over 20 years’ experience in the fields of precision diagnostics and cancer care. Their leading cancer centres in Barcelona form part of their network healthcare model whereby pathologists and oncologists share protocols and jointly discuss each case in weekly international tumour committees. Atrys offers patients any type of treatment they may need in the course of their illness, with personalized solutions for each case. Patients are accompanied throughout the path of the disease from its precise diagnosis, surgery and chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy treatments.

Atrys provide patients with the highest quality diagnoses and treatments and standardised care across their network.

Atrys comprises a team of medical doctors with international experience, supported by the most advanced technology. Offering state-of-the-art, personalised cancer care, each case is overseen by the multidisciplinary tumour committee. The committee shares the latest medical-scientific advances, best clinical practices, medical advice and comes to an agreement so that the patient always receives the best therapeutic option. Cancer care at Atrys centres is comprehensive.

State-of-the-art radiotherapy

All Atrys’s oncology centres are equipped with the most up-to-date radiotherapy treatments such as Image Guided Single Dose Radiation Therapy (IGRT) and hypofractionated radiotherapy.

IGRT allows high doses of radiation to be delivered very precisely, greatly reducing the impact on the surrounding healthy tissues. It can be delivered in a single session and subject to specialist consultation can be used to remove a tumour at an early stage, providing novel treatment options for patients who are unable to undergo surgery or who do not have other effective treatments available to them.

Hypofractionated radiotherapy is an advanced technique that is increasingly being used to treat a range of cancers. Using hypofractionation, more doses of radiation are delivered per treatment, allowing patients to complete their course of radiation therapy more quickly with the possibility of fewer short term side effects and a better quality of life.

Second opinion

Atrys offers a second opinion oncology service for those with a cancer diagnosis of any kind who wish to get a second opinion from an expert team and examine different treatment options.

Individualised, precision cancer care

When it comes to treating cancer, many different elements come into play: the nature of the cancer itself, the general health of the person affected, their lifestyle and circumstances. At Atrys, multidisciplinary working, combined with the most up-to-date technology, ensures fast diagnosis and highly personalised health care tailored to the needs of each patient.

The treatments offered at Atrys are designed to provide optimum results, both in terms of efficacy in the fight against cancer and in the health and well-being of the patient, in the short- and long-term. Using the most advanced precision techniques and systems, potential side effects are reduced and in many cases the duration of treatment is considerable shortened.
