Overview
OncoZON (Oncologisch Netwerk Zuidoost-Nederland) is a formal collaboration between Maastricht UMC+, the Maastro radiotherapy clinic and the general hospitals of Limburg and south-east Brabant. It organises shared tumour-specific care pathways, regional multidisciplinary tumour boards, concentration of complex surgery and joint participation in clinical trials so that patients receive the same standard of care wherever in the region they present.
