Center for Oncology
The University Cancer Center Hamburg (UCCH) is organized as a network in order to allow an easier approach to cancer-related topics at the UKE.
The more common cancers are represented within a specific Organ Cancer Center. The overall care of all cancer patients is coordinated by the Oncology Center.
The Organ Cancer Centers as well as the Oncology Center obtain certificates by external auditors. In doing so we thouroughly observe the strong rules of internationally acclaimed auditors as the Deutsche Krebsgesellschaft (DKG), the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Hämatologie und Onkologie (DGHO) und the Deutsche Krebshilfe (DKH).

Breast Center
In Germany, more than 70,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. In order to identify and treat the disease optimally, we act according to high quality criteria. In March 2004, we were one of the first breast centers to receive the certificate of the German Cancer Society (DKG) and the German Society for Senology (DGS).
At annual intervals, our center is audited and the certificate is renewed, most recently in May 2015.
