Greek radiotherapy infrastructure development
Overview
Developments in Greek oncological infrastructure have focused on expanding radiotherapy capabilities through both national and regional initiatives.
At Sotiria Hospital, a 30 million euro radiotherapy center funded by the Recovery and Resilience Facility is nearing completion. Despite previous legal disputes, bureaucratic hurdles, and pressure from the European Commission regarding timelines, the project has moved toward the final stages. Following a decision from the Administrative Court of Appeals, the ministry is proceeding with the contract for two linear accelerators, with the facility expected to be operational within approximately five months.
In the Thessaly region, efforts are underway to fund a modern radiotherapy machine for Achillopouleio Hospital in Volos. This investment, exceeding 3 million euros, is currently awaiting Ministry of Health approval. The project aims to provide local cancer treatment for patients in Magnesia and will require building modifications and the recruitment of specialized medical staff.
