All of the medical technological equipment and services available at Medicana Ankara Hospital are listed below:
Linac
The linear accelerator (Linac) is a device used in cancer treatment and can generate high-energy radiation. This device is crucial in radiotherapy treatment to destroy or control cancer cells. This method targets cancer cells during radiotherapy while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Thanks to its dose control and effect features, Linac is a tool used to treat various types of cancer.
PET-CT
Positron Emission Tomography - Computed Tomography (PET-CT) is used for advanced medical imaging. The images of PET and CT combine anatomical and functional information, providing a comprehensive assessment opportunity. It is primarily used in areas such as cancer diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of the treatment. PET-CT can support early diagnosis of diseases, evaluation of response to treatment, and determination of the extent of disease spread.
Force CT
Force CT is a tomography device with motion freezing and 4D imaging capabilities. Thanks to these features, Force CT can reduce motion-induced blurriness in images of obese, elderly, or unconscious individuals and decrease the likelihood of unwanted objects appearing. It can facilitate early diagnosis of many diseases, including those affecting the lungs, heart, and kidneys, as well as small or otherwise concealed lesions.
1.5 Tesla MR
The 1.5 Tesla MRI imaging is a technological test that uses radio waves to capture detailed pictures of the body's internal organs. This test can detect diseases in various areas, such as the chest, abdomen, brain, lungs, knee, heart, and pelvis.
CyberKnife
CyberKnife is a robotic radiosurgery system designed for cancer treatment that can be used throughout the body. This system enables the application of high-dose therapy to cancerous tissues in the brain and body by using radiation beams in a focused manner. At the same time, normal tissues can be protected from the effects of radiation.
Whole Body MR
Whole-body MR screening serves as an advanced, comprehensive check-up option for individuals concerned about or at risk for cancer. It scans the entire body in a single session, including the brain and neck, to furnish preemptive information before disease symptoms or tumor dissemination. People with a genetic predisposition to cancer are also candidates for this screening.
Excimer Laser
The Excimer Laser is a tool designed for vision correction and adjusting refractive errors, including myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, by altering the cornea's shape to an appropriate configuration. It is utilized to manage myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. This quickly applied device focuses on correcting eye abnormalities to remove the dependency on eyeglasses and contact lenses.
3D Tomosynthesis-Featured Digital Mammography
3D Tomosynthesis features digital Mammography scans the breast tissue in three dimensions. This method allows for obtaining multiple images from different angles and creating a three-dimensional image of the breast tissue in 1 mm slices. This technology is used for the early diagnosis of breast cancer.
DSA (Digital Subtraction Angiography) Digital Angiography
DSA (Digital Subtraction Angiography) is used for detailed imaging of all the vessels in the body, allowing for the diagnosis of vascular diseases with the images obtained. This method can detect diseases such as narrowing, malformation, and fistulas in the vessels of different body areas, including the brain, abdominal region, skin, arms, and legs.
HoLEP
HoLEP is a prostate surgery method that uses a holmium laser entered through the urinary canal. Though performed in a minimally invasive manner, it removes the entire prostate similar to open prostate surgery. Spinal anesthesia can be sufficient during the surgery. The HoLEP method is used in the treatment of prostate diseases, allowing for the treatment of benign prostate enlargement.
Ultrasonography
Ultrasonography (US) is a method that uses sound waves to produce images. Many diseases can be diagnosed using an ultrasound device. This device, which does not involve radiation risk or side effects, does not cause any pain to the patient. Since ultrasonography does not involve radiation, patients do not experience unnecessary radiation exposure.
Versa HD
Versa HD is a high-energy linear accelerator used in radiotherapy, capable of treating all types of cancer requiring radiotherapy, especially for tumors near small, critical organs or in the head.
Computed Tomography (CT)
Computed Tomography (CT) is an imaging method that uses special X-ray technology to create detailed pictures or scans of the inside of the body, combining X-ray images to form cross-sectional views of vessels, bones, and soft tissues.
Mammography
Mammography is a radiological imaging method using low-dose rays for screening and diagnosing breast diseases, widely used for early breast cancer detection.
X-Ray
X-ray visualizes the inside of the body, allowing for the imaging of bones and tissues. It plays a significant role in diagnosing many diseases and planning treatment processes.
Flash CT
Flash CT is a radiological diagnostic device aimed at performing heart and lung scans quickly and with low radiation levels. With Flash CT, imaging of various body regions, especially cardiac and lung scans, can be obtained. It allows performing a cardiac angiography in 0.25 seconds and lung imaging without the need for breath-holding in 0.6 seconds. It also facilitates imaging for individuals with claustrophobia, trauma history, children, and obese patients.
Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) Bone Density Test
Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) Bone Density Test measures bone mineral density, typically used to evaluate and manage osteoporosis and determine fracture risk by measuring the mineral content in bones using CT.
