Promotion

Our Nuclear Medicine Department, with its high-end equipment, enables the early imaging of diseases at the molecular level, and also offers targeted radioisotope treatments. It aims to provide detailed information about the structure and functions of organs in all age groups from the newborn period, to guide and follow up the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

Imaging Methods and Treatment Applications

  • Lung Perfusion and Ventilation Scintigraphy; Accurate anatomical localization and increasing diagnostic accuracy with SPECT/CT
  • Diagnosis of diseases such as Dementia, Epilepsy, Parkinson in the central nervous system
  • Accurate anatomical localization and increasing diagnostic accuracy with SPECT/CT, evaluation of brain metabolism with PET/CT
  • In the determination of ischemia-infarct area in coronary artery diseases, attenuation correction with SPECT/CT and removal of artifacts and accurate imaging in a shorter time, determination of live tissue area with PET/CT
  • Elimination of false positive and negative evaluations by providing correct anatomical localization with SPECT/CT in skeletal system diseases
  • Accurate anatomical localization and increasing diagnostic accuracy with SPECT/CT in thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal gland diseases
  • Diagnosis of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract
  • Diagnosis and follow-up of kidney diseases (Stenosis, Reflux, Infection, Tumor, etc.)

Nuclear Oncology

  • 18F-FDG, 18F-NAF, Ga-68 Peptide (DOTA Compounds) and Ga-68 PSMA Tumor PET/CT Imaging
  • Intraoperative Gamma Probe applications
  • Radioactive Iodine 131 and I123 or I131 MIBG Scintigraphy Accurate anatomical localization and increasing diagnostic accuracy with SPECT/CT
  • Sentinel Lymph Node examination (Anatomical mapping with SPECT/CT in breast cancer and malignant melanoma)

Nuclear Oncology Treatments

  • RAI 131 Treatment (Benign and malignant thyroid gland diseases)
  • Neuroendocrine tumor treatment with Lutetium-177 DOTA and Actinium-225 DOTA Compounds
  • Prostate cancer treatment with Lutetium-177 PSMA, Actinium-225 PSMA and Radium-223
  • Treatment for pain in bone metastases
  • TARE in primary tumors and metastases of the liver (Y-90, Holmium-166)
  • I131 MIBG therapy
