Proton Therapy Center Czech

Today we would like to introduce you to another one of our colleagues. One of our radiological assistants “Maxmilian Ačjak”.

🔵 Max came to us from the Faculty Hospital in Olomouc, where he previously worked. "When a colleague in Olomouc told me about the possibility of working at the Proton Center, I did not hesitate. The proton center is the only workplace in Czechia and Slovakia where proton therapy is utilized. There is a modern environment, and all of that together attracted me a lot. “

🔵 When asked what fulfills him in his profession, he replies: "I always feel good about our patients' feedback, their gratitude, it confirms me that I am doing a job that is really meaningful”

On Monday, February 12th, we welcomed 28 students from seven different schools‼️ The students took part in the Particle Therapy Masterclass seminars, organized for high school students at the Proton Center. It was lead by our radiological physicists Kristýna Olsson Heřmanová, Martin Sýkora and Martin Kurucz, who prepared a rich program for the students. ☺️ They introduced them to topics such as the basics of particle physics, medical imaging methods and therapeutic radiation planning. The event also included a tour of the technical facilities of our Centre and a video conference with representatives from the GSI Centre - (a heavy ion research facility based in Darmstadt, Germany) and CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research). We have this event planned again in March, we are already looking forward to it!😊

Today is Christmas Eve! 🎄🌟 We wish you a blessed Christmas holiday filled with peace and joy. ❤️ Merry Christmas! 🍀
