Senology
(head: Dr. Manuela Seifert, MD)
In our Senology department (officially certified Breast Cancer Center – Bergisches Brustzentrum) we treat all diseases of the breast including breast cancer. Modern breast cancer therapy very often requires the combination of different methods such as surgery, chemotherapy or radiatiotherapy. All modes can be offered at our center. All cases of our breast cancer patients are frequently discussed in our interdisciplinary tumor board. The tumor board consists of specialists from every oncologic department, e.g. surgery, medical oncology, radiology, pathology and others.
