PET-CT Imaging Method

PET-CT is an advanced technological imaging method created by the combination of positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT). PET-CT plays an active role especially in the field of oncology, as well as cardiac and neurological disorders. Diagnosis of cancer diseases, treatment planning, and post-treatment evaluation processes are performed with the PET-CT imaging method, which has low radiation and high-speed scanning of the body from beginning to end.

In oncological diseases, PET-CT imaging is of great importance in the early diagnosis of cancer, treatment planning, staging, detection of recurrences, detection of metastases, planning of radiotherapy treatment, and evaluation of treatment success.

Cancer types that PET-CT is most effective; lung cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, head and neck cancers, colorectal cancers, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, gynecological cancers, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, lymphoma, melanoma.

Cytoreductive Surgery and HIPEC Treatment

It has been observed that cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal warm chemotherapy prolong life in tumors with peritoneal spread. Cytoreduction (reducing cancer cell load) surgery involves removing part or all of the membrane surrounding the abdomen and then destroying tumor cells in other areas with heated chemotherapy (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy).

Smart Medicine Application

Smart medicine application provides targeted results in cancer treatment. Many medicines are included in the category of biological medicines, defined as smart medicines. Among these, tyrosine kinase inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies come to the fore.

Classical chemotherapies are more effective on proliferating cells. It finds and blocks cells that are in the replication phase, and kills them. Targeted drugs, act directly on that cancer cell, even if the cell has not multiplied, or they work to block a different structure in that cancer cell.

Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy is a treatment method used in cancer treatment in addition to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This method supports the resistance of the body of the person carrying the cancer cell, increases the immunity, and tries to destroy the cancer cells in this way. Some immunotherapy drugs deliver radiotherapy and chemotherapy directly to cancer.

The types of cancer that immunotherapy effects are listed as follows; Non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, skin cancers (melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma), Genitourinary cancers (kidney and bladder cancer), some gastrointestinal cancers (esophagus, stomach, liver cancer), triple-negative breast cancer, head and neck cancers.

FAQ

You can find the frequently asked questions and the relevant answers here.
Which cancers are screened with PET-CT?
The cancer types in which PET-CT is most effective are: lung cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, head and neck cancers, colorectal cancers, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, gynecological cancers, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, lymphoma , melanoma.
When is radiotherapy needed?
Radiotherapy treatments are applied before, after the surgical operation or in conjunction with chemotherapy, depending on the patient's condition. Radiation oncology is preferred as the first treatment approach in the treatment of certain types of tumors, especially lung, prostate, skin cancer, head and neck cancer, lymphoma or cervical cancer. In the treatment of breast, endometrium, testis, bladder, thyroid, pancreatic and brain cancers, radiation oncology is used after surgery.
Is chemotherapy only given intravenously?
Chemotherapy can be given to a patient in many different ways. Chemotherapy drugs are available in tablet forms that can be taken orally, as well as forms that can be administered intravenously or directly into the abdominal cavity.
What is cytoreduction surgery?
Cytoreduction (reducing the cancer cell load) surgery involves the destruction of tumor cells in other regions with heated cancer drug after removing part or all of the membrane called the peritoneum that surrounds the abdomen.
How do smart drugs differ from targeted drugs?
Classical cancer drugs are more effective on proliferating cells. These drugs find and block cells that are in the proliferative phase and kill them. Targeted drugs, on the other hand, have a specific effect on the cancer cell whether any cell proliferates or not, or work to block a structure that is seen differently in cancer, and they have more side effects than smart drugs.
Hormone therapy is used in the treatment of which cancers?
Hormone therapy; It is used in the treatment of breast cancer and prostate cancer. Hormone therapy can be applied if the tumors of patients who have undergone breast cancer treatment and chemotherapy are sensitive to estrogen or progesterone. In prostate cancer, the secretion of androgen hormone from the testicles is stopped by hormone therapy, and the progression of prostate cancer is prevented.
Which branches work together in oncology surgery?
In oncology surgery; Many branches such as urology, general surgery, orthopedics, neurooncology, thoracic surgery and otolaryngology perform cancer treatment with a multidisciplinary approach. Through our departments, cancers of the colon and rectum, uterus (endometrium), cervix (cervix), ovary (ovary), large intestine and larynx (larynx); At the same time, diagnosis and treatment of bone and brain tumors are carried out.
