What is digital subtraction angiography? Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is an interventional radiological method used to clearly visualize blood vessels in tissues. It is often used to detect a problem with blood flow in the vessels in the brain. A contrast agent is given to the body for imaging. When the contrast material reaches the […]

One of the newest treatment methods for traumatic and/or spontaneous (primary) calcification of the knee. The Navio Knee robot is used for prostheses where the entire knee is not replaced. During surgery, the patient’s anatomy is uploaded digitally. This three-dimensional data, specific to each patient, is processed by the surgeon on the computer, and the
Brachytherapy is a method used to increase local control of the condition by increasing the dose of radiation applied to the tumor before and after external beam radiation therapy. However, it can also be used autonomously, for curative purposes, in patients whose situation is suitable for such treatment. In brachytherapy, radioactive sources are placed in
The nuclear medicine department of Acıbadem Healthcare Group uses radioactive materials in small quantities for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and monitors the distribution of these materials in the body. While radiology uses imaging to study anatomical details, nuclear medicine uses imaging to study organ functions in order to diagnose disease. Diagnostic and treatment
Fast low-dose computed tomography Flash CT is a diagnostic radiology tool with an advanced technology that enables whole body scanning, especially for heart and lung screening purposes, in less than 4 seconds with 80% less radiation. Flash CT can perform a cardiac angiography scan in 0.25 seconds, protecting the patient from excess radiation during the
MRIdian by ViewRay is the world’s first radiotherapy device with an integrated MRI. The device enables the treatment of tumours previously considered untreatable. What is MRIdian (ViewRay)? Until recently, doctors used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to see tumours and linear accelerators (LINAC) to treat them. MRI-LINAC is a revolutionary solution that combines both technologies in
Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IORT) allows a single dose of radiation to be given during breast cancer surgery. This eliminates the need for postoperative radiotherapy. If doctors request it, additional doses of radiotherapy can be implemented. Applying a single dose of radiotherapy to the exact site of the tumour drastically reduces the recurrence of cancer in
