Radiology Centre
Our Self-Conception
The Radiology of the Max Grundig Clinic combines the best for the benefit of its patients. Declared goal – diagnostics at the highest level. Therefore, we have opted, without compromise, for the very latest generation of imaging medical technology, which enables us to examine all body regions. The more accurate and detailed the image quality, the more precise the resulting evaluation and diagnostics will be. And last but not least – the faster the causes of the disease are identified, the greater the chances of cure and recovery with a timely therapy.
We Are the First Point of Contact
We do not only select the appropriate diagnostic procedure from a medical point of view, but we are also the first point of contact for the treating specialist or general practitioner and, of course, for you, our patients. Do you want to know which examinations are necessary or what the right examination method is and what your findings mean? Contact us at any time.

The Radiology Team
Excellent Care
What is the benefit of the most modern examination technique without highly qualified specialists who evaluate it? The team at the Max Grundig Clinic’s Radiology Centre, headed by Prof. Dr. Peter Huppert, is always aware of this requirement and ensures precise diagnostics every day, which are the basis for a successful therapy.
We Are at Your Disposal
The six-person team is aware of the concerns and worries of the patients, professionally coordinates all procedures, and accompanies them throughout the entire examination. High-tech medicine is thus naturally pushed into the background, while the well-being of the patient is the top priority. The philosophy of the Max Grundig Clinic, to always achieve the optimum for the patient, motivates everyone and unites the entire radiology team.
