Welcome to the
RINECKER PROTON THERAPY CENTRE (RPTC)!

We invite you to find out about proton therapy, our Centre, the opportunities we offer for treatment, and our team of skilled professionals.

The RPTC, located in Munich, is the first fully certified European proton radiation centre which provides a complete hospital setting for the treatment of cancer tumours.

The innovative therapeutic procedure we use involves the use of high-energy proton beams for the treatment of cancer. A key characteristic of these proton beams is that protons facilitate the three-dimensional targeting of tumours; this capability is not available with the x-rays used in conventional radiation therapy. Therefore, highly effective dosages can be delivered to the tumour while the side effects of radiation are reduced by minimizing any trauma to the surrounding healthy tissue.
