In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we celebrate Hanyang University Hospital in Seoul, South Korea, for leading a simple yet meaningful change that enhances patient comfort and clinical efficiency in breast cancer care.
The challenge: Traditionally, patients were asked to change into standard hospital gowns before treatment—a routine step that often left them feeling exposed and uneasy. Beyond comfort, these gowns could also interrupt workflow, requiring therapists to readjust or remove fabric during patient setup.
The innovation: Technology meets humanity. Recognizing the emotional impact of this experience, the team introduced a new “clothing-on” protocol. Breast cancer patients are now encouraged to wear their own suitable clothing, such as a plain, light-colored t-shirt, that allows reproducible positioning while maintaining modesty.*
This approach integrates seamlessly with Brainlab ExacTrac Dynamic, a state-of-the-art positioning and monitoring system that combines surface-guided and image-guided technology for submillimetric accuracy.
Benefits at a glance according to the Hanyang University Hospital:
- Preserves patient modesty and comfort, reducing emotional stress
- Enables precise set up of ExacTrac Dynamic without the need for permanent tattoos or skin marks
- Streamlines workflow and reduces setup time
In their words: “What matters most is that our patients feel comfortable throughout the treatment process. With the new system, we can ease much of their burden, and that gives us great fulfillment in our work.” – Dr. Hae Jin Park, Radiation Oncologist, Head of Radiation Oncology Department
“The fact that patients no longer need to repeatedly change clothes or have skin markers drawn is one of the most satisfying improvements. It not only shortens the setup time, but also enhances patients’ overall quality of life. Since we no longer use ink, the treatment room stays cleaner and more pleasant, and maintenance is much easier. For breast cancer patients especially, some used to feel uncomfortable or even refused treatment when assigned to a male therapist. Now, those concerns have been resolved, which brings peace of mind to both patients and to us as providers.” – Je Hyeok Lee, Radiation Therapist
The impact: The department reports shorter setup times, smoother daily workflows and positive patient feedback, particularly around comfort and modesty.
“What I like about receiving radiation therapy at Hanyang University Hospital is that, except for the simulation session, I can wear a white t-shirt during treatment. Since there are male radiation therapists, it could feel a bit embarrassing to have daily treatments, but with this approach, that’s not an issue.” – Breast cancer patient, Hanyang University Hospital (via User Blog)
Honoring Breast Cancer Awareness Month with action: This initiative reflects the heart of awareness: turning empathy into everyday improvement. It shows that innovation isn’t always about new technology—sometimes it’s about using what we already have to make care more human.
Please join us in celebrating the Hanyang University Hospital for showing that true innovation blends technology, empathy and everyday action—especially during a month dedicated to breast cancer awareness and advocacy.

At the University Hospital for Radiation Oncology Innsbruck, prostate cancer treatment is built on precision and teamwork. Treating 15–20 patients each day, the department has refined an implanted marker workflow that gives clinicians full control over imaging and positioning. Under Professor Ute Ganswindt’s leadership, the team has made accuracy a shared focus across every step of care.
The challenge: motion that doesn’t wait - Even in treatments lasting only a few minutes, the prostate can shift without warning. In Innsbruck, this unpredictable movement appeared in one third of monitored sessions. Small deviations could accumulate across a VMAT arc with the potential to affect dose coverage and increase toxicity. To move toward shorter, more efficient treatment schedules, the team needed a way to quantify and correct that motion reliably in real time.
The innovation: an implanted marker workflow built for precision - Using the Brainlab ExacTrac Dynamic implanted marker workflow, the Innsbruck team was able to detect and correct for prostate motion. Continuous X-ray monitoring of fiducial markers helped clinicians maintain target alignment throughout treatment and prevent deviations from building over time. With marker implantation performed directly within the radiation oncology department, the workflow also allowed seamless integration with imaging and planning protocols and ensured strong ownership of each step.
The shift: confidence to move toward ultra-hypofractionation - With precise, reliable motion management in place, the team began transitioning from conventional and moderately hypofractionated regimens to ultra-hypofractionated protocols. Their goal was clear: shorten the overall treatment pathway while maintaining the accuracy necessary to protecting nearby healthy structures and minimizing toxicity. The established collaboration across teams and the efficiency and precision of the implanted marker workflow provided the necessary foundation to make that shift safely.
In their words: “Progress like this only happens when everyone is aligned around the same goal: delivering precise, reliable care for every patient, every day. The collaboration across teams and the efficiency of the implanted marker workflow provided the foundation we needed to make that shift safely.” – Dr. Angela Ginestet, Radiation Oncologist, University Hospital for Radiation Oncology Innsbruck.
The impact: precision that supports patient-centered treatments - A recent evaluation from the University Hospital for Radiation Oncology Innsbruck confirmed that the implanted marker workflow with ExacTrac Dynamic accurately identified and corrected clinically relevant motion during prostate treatments. For a department committed to delivering precise care at high daily volumes, this capability is helping shape a future where shorter treatment schedules can coexist with uncompromised accuracy.
