What we are about
The latest generation of intelligent technology and target-oriented cancer treatment
Cancer treatment is successfully completed by a team of highly-specialised academic staff, utilising the latest technology devices and applications at Radiation Oncology Departments.
Radiotherapy is a treatment method that aims to eradicate cancer cells through the utilisation of high-energy radiation.
Fields of application for radiotherapy
Curative radiotherapy: In light of the available information about the disease, this is applied in cases where the disease can be completely treated. It can be applied alone or with surgery and/or chemotherapy.
Palliative radiotherapy: This is applied in cases where it is impossible to destroy the disease. The goal is to prevent and relieve suffering and improve the quality of life for people facing serious, complex illnesses.
Scalpel-free and bloodless surgical treatment using beams: Radiosurgery
The fundamental aim of radiosurgery, one of the fields of application of radiation oncology, is to direct many low-energy beams to the diseased area to shrink or kill the cancerous cells with the intense beams while protecting the surrounding healthy tissues from the harmful effects of radiation.
Multidisciplinary team approach and customized care in diagnosis and treatment of cancer
Cancer is a group of diseases characterised by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. These cells threaten the human body in a number of ways, including biological, psychological, social and economic. Cancer is one of the most prevalent and lethal chronic diseases of our time, responsible for a significant number of deaths.
A cancer diagnosis, or even the mere possibility of one, directly undermines the homeostatic balance of individuals. Despite recent developments in cancer treatment, the negative connotations associated with the disease and the implementation of intensive treatment cause many problems for patients. It is therefore vital that we control the symptoms and ensure the life satisfaction of individuals with the disease.
Techniques used in the application of radiation oncology.
Treatment devices used in the application of radiation oncology.
Application Fields of Surgical Treatment.
Robotic Surgery with “da Vinci”
Laparoscopic operations that are performed with the da Vinci surgical robot are referred to as robotic surgery. These operations provide numerous advantages to the patient.
Chemotherapy, or medicated therapy, is a form of cancer treatment that involves the use of chemical agents to destroy cancer cells. The objective of chemotherapy is to eradicate malignant cells that have undergone structural alterations, resulting in uncontrolled proliferation. At Acibadem Oncology Centers, we utilize the most recent advancements in this field to provide treatment to our patients.
Hormonal therapy: The administration of hormonal drugs represents a treatment modality for neoplastic lesions that are responsive to hormonal stimuli, including those of the prostate and breast.
Immunotherapy, or treatment via the immune system, Substances that the immune system naturally produces are employed to identify and destroy cancerous cells by stimulating the body's immune system to recognise and target the cells.
Target-driven biological therapy represents a significant advancement in the field of oncology. One of the most significant advancements in cancer therapy over the past decade has been the emergence of highly efficacious biological therapies. This treatment modality has a favourable side effect profile and identifies targets that are present in cancerous cells but not in normal cells.
