Ranked among the 100 world’s best hospitals in oncology by a panel of 40,000 doctors and healthcare professionals (Newsweek 2021 ranking), Centre Antoine Lacassagne has one of the most comprehensive radiotherapy and imaging platforms in Europe. It is recognised for its expertise in head and neck tumours and in surgery for female cancers. Patients at Centre Antoine Lacassagne are able to receive the best possible treatment since they have access to state-of-the-art techniques and the most innovative medical treatments.

With the Cyclotron Medicyc in operation since 17 June 1991, Centre Antoine Lacassagne treated a melanoma of the eye by proton therapy for the first time in France. 30 years later, its expertise is now internationally recognised and confirmed by several publications. In 2016, it inaugurated the Institut Méditerranéen de ProtonThérapie with the world’s first high-energy proton therapy equipment. It is used primarily in paediatric oncology.
