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.
da Vinci Robot
The da Vinci Robotic Device is a robotic surgery system used to perform surgical procedures. This system provides the surgeon with precise control and magnification, aiding in executing surgical interventions. Commonly used in various fields such as oncological, gynecological, urological, and cardiovascular surgery, the da Vinci Robotic Device stands out as a technology contributing to the precise, effective, and minimally invasive execution of surgical procedures.
3 Tesla MR
The 3 Tesla MRI is an imaging device that provides higher quality images in a similar timeframe to the 1.5 Tesla MRI, thanks to its higher magnetic strength. This is mainly used in neurology, orthopedics, cardiology, and imaging of the entire body.
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.
Whole-body MRI
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 Imaging and Navigation System for Prostate Biopsy
The 3D Imaging and Navigation System for Prostate Biopsy combines ultrasound images used in MRI and biopsy procedures in three dimensions. Furthermore, its navigation feature facilitates the detection of cancerous tumors. This technology is used in the early diagnosis of prostate 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.
Robotic Orthopedic Surgery
The Robotic Orthopedic device used in prosthetic procedures for the treatment of joint arthrosis offers prosthetic surgery tailored to the patient's anatomy and biomechanics. Prosthetic surgery aims to cover the damaged joint surfaces, reduce pain, and preserve mobility and functionality.
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.
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.
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.
EUS (Endoscopic Ultrasound)
EUS (Endoscopic Ultrasound) is a procedure that utilizes ultrasonography at the tip of specialized devices used in digestive system endoscopy to image internal organs. This method is used for staging tumors in the digestive system and adjacent organs (stomach, intestines, gallbladder, liver, pancreas) and examining lesions located just below the surface of the digestive system.
EBUS (Endobronchial Ultrasound)
Bronchoscopy involves the direct visual inspection of the entire airway using a specialized imaging instrument known as a bronchoscope. Conversely, Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) represents a technique that permits the ultrasonographic evaluation of the airway wall and the lungs while performing bronchoscopy. This approach is employed in diagnosing various conditions, including lung cancer, bronchial bleeding, lung fibrosis, lymphoma, and tuberculosis.
