South-East European Collaboration

Advancing radiation oncology through regional expertise and shared science.

RISING-RO unites specialists across South-East Europe to standardize cancer care, foster collaborative research, and bridge the innovation gap in radiotherapy. Together we rise.

A network without borders

Rooted in South-East Europe, open to the world. We connect oncology centers, researchers, and partners wherever excellent care and science are advanced — turning collaboration into a shared standard of care.

  • Shared quality-assurance protocols across regional centers.

  • Joint registries for rare tumours and pooled clinical data.

  • Mentorship pipelines for the next generation of oncologists.
