Olga Hamming-Vrieze

Since 2006 I have been working as a radiation oncologist at the Netherlands Cancer Institute. As a radiation oncologist, I am part of the multidisciplinary teams for the treatment of breast cancer and soft tissue cancer. Within these teams, we strive for tailor-made care for each patient. The attention to each individual patient is an important part of my job satisfaction.

I am also interested in the development of radiotherapy techniques such as image guided radiotherapy (IGRT) and adaptive radiotherapy (ART). With these techniques, we can irradiate tumors more precisely and better protect the surrounding organs. In this way, I can directly contribute to a higher quality of life for my patients.
