Radiotherapy is together with surgery and chemotherapy the main curative treatment modality for cancer, and is also an important palliative treatment.

In this network, we aim to gather radiotherapy researchers at the hospitals whithin the South-Eastern Norway Regional Health Authority (Helse Sør-Øst RHF) to strengthen research and clinical competence, and thereby facilitate implementation of novel, improved radiotherapy techniques and strategies.
