What is important to know about radiotherapy?

  • The latest generation radiotherapy devices are the most accurate and safe. They are equipped with a 3D imaging sy that delivers the radiation beam with an accuracy of 0.5 mm, so the impact on healthy tissue is minimal. For comparison, the accuracy of irradiation using old installations is a few cm.
  • The newer the equipment, the higher the effectiveness of radiation therapy. Devices of 2003-2008 were installed in domestic clinics, 2013-2018 in foreign ones.
  • Irradiation on the device of the latest generation will pass quickly. 1 session takes 10-15 minutes. For comparison, radiotherapy with older devices lasts 30-60 minutes.
  • The cost of radiation therapy abroad is not always higher. The price of radiation therapy on a linear accelerator of the latest generation in a foreign clinic can be the same as with the help of an old one in a domestic hospital.

The directory lists the best clinics for radiation therapy. The rating is based on the choice of our patients. Leave a request on the website so that a Bookimed coordinating doctor will contact you at a convenient time for you. He will answer your questions, tell you about the features of the procedure, guide you on the cost of treatment and help you choose the best medical center for your case.

Memorial is more than a hospital. It is home from home. Very hospitable and caring staff who show a lot of empathy. My one night stay in the hospital was a delightful experience, kind and available staff, every neat and hygienic room. The doctors are on top of their job. I was taken through a lecture in nuclear physics 101, broken in simple language. The lecturer helped allayed my initial fears about the treatment. The treatment was speedy and the results came so quickly. The doctor was by my bedside to explain the next steps. The translator was fantastic. The transportation service was superb, always on time. I got more than value for my money. I will strongly recommend Memorial Sisli Hospital for any person seeking Lu-177 therapy

I was really nervous about a new breast lump that developed. I reached out to Book I med and explained my situation. I was directed to Hisar Intercontinental Hospital. They did biopsy, ultrasound and PET scan. Although I wanted surgery, doctor explained it wasn't in my best interest and recommended medication instead. Doctors were careful to come up with plan, they didn't rush to make decisions. I had a medical coordinator who assisted in transportation to and from hospital and coordinating tests and doctor visits. I was also assigned an interpreter for Turkish to English.They were both wonderful and it was nice to have assistance and smiling faces when I arrived. They always took time to listen to concerns and answer questions. I met with 2 doctors, a breast cancer surgeon and oncologist. They both were professional and friendly. They met with a tumor board of physicians to discuss my plan.I feel like I got professional care and good treatment plan. The hospital was clean and modern. They did a good job with the tests, I didn't feel any pain from the doctor who did my biopsy. Believe me when you have something as scary as a breast lump you want to be in good hands.I paid for each test and medication individually with credit card. I was told the cost before each purchase. Even though the whole bill wasn't cheap, it's much much lower cost than I could get in United States. As a self pay patient I am glad for that also. So overall even though I was struggling with something really bad(tumor) I feel like I got great and professional care at a decent price. I would truly recommend this to anyone. And Turkey is such a beautiful country with friendly people. There is hidden artwork everywhere. So even though I am going through this ordeal being in beautiful Turkey makes it not so bad. The food here is really good and cheap. I'm staying in Old city which has tons of Cafe restaurants. In your spare time just sitting at a Cafe and watching the myriad of people walking by is fun. I am confident I am going to beat this breast tumor with the help of the wonderful care given at Hisar Intercontinental Hospital.

When they learned what was needed in the clinic, they didn’t even know where to run and whom to contact. Coordinators helped to select a clinic. They gave us a doctor. Everything went great, the doctor is a true professional.  Separately, I want to note the attitude to patients. We were met at the airport, brought to the clinic and there was already a translator waiting. Literally "by the hand" we were taken to the doctors, everyone translated. Then they provided a taxi to the hotel.   During the operation, the ward was provided for two people - for the patient and the attendant; both of them were included in the cost of the operation.   After surgery, the doctor held a consultation, making sure that you can fly back. And only then answered questions remotely that arose.  Clinic definitely recommend

I, Temirbek Ormotoev came from Kyrgyzstan, I chose Florence Nightingale Hospital which was helped by bookimed company and the staff of this company liked me, especially I am happy to deal with Professor Ahmet-Tunch Ozdemir. Today is the 3rd day after the operation performed by Prof Ahmet-Tunç Ozdemir. The operation was done wonderfully, I am satisfied and also the hospital conditions and medical staff were top notch, everyone is polite to the patients, especially the head nurse and nurse Linhai were very good at patient care. Why did I choose Florence Nightingale specifically? Because this hospital is one of the advanced hospitals in Turkey and there is a DaVinci robotised sy. I have a neoplasm in my kidney over 30 mm. Prof Ahmet-Tunç Ozdemir performed the operation within 1.5 hours and he has golden hands. Dear readers, if anyone wants to be treated abroad, come specifically to Florence Nightingale and find Prof Ahmet-Tunç Ozdemir and you will not go wrong with your choice. I was discharged on the second day after surgery, I feel great and recovery is underway. In terms of the cost of paying for the surgery, compared to other clinics in Turkey, it is realistic and inexpensive. Mr Ahmet-Tunc Ozdemir, my family and I wish you good health, longevity, good luck in everything and that you stay for a long time saving patients from various diseases, Allah help you. I am also grateful to the medical coordinators of bookimed platform, Liana, who from the very beginning until today accompanies and helps with treatment abroad and assistants named Alisher, translator Aigerim, who know their business professionally. Thank you all who helped me with this situation, Allah bless us all.

I had a terrible experience. Dr. Zielinski was dismissive and rushed me, he hasn't answered my questions and he asked me for more tests in order to speak about treatment plans when I was told previously that I didn't need any tests in order to proceed with the consultation and receive a treatment plan. He didn't bother to explain the disease or treatment options. I was looking forward to speak to him and I put so much hope. I needed someone to explain and guide me. I was left with such a bed feeling after the consultation. No empathy and no professionalism. Bookimed apologise but they said that they can't do anything because I paid directly the clinic, even if they are the intermediary they don't take responsibility, so be very careful when booking any services. I wasted 400 euros for 10 minutes that I was trying to make a few questions in order to get some value for the money but the only thing I got was disappointment, frustration, stress and time waste for arguing. I asked for at least to have some questions asked in writing so I could get something back for my money, but they refused, and they said that the consultation was compleated. In the first place, they said that I had a second consultation for free because it wasn't compleated, and then they said it was a mistake and the consultation was compleated. Please be careful where you spend your money and put your hopes because they don't care about taking advantage of ill people in order to make money. Probably are not all the same but my experience was awful and I am very disappointed. Some become doctors because they want to help people and others have no feelings or empathy. I hope this helps whoever is reading and I hope you find a better option than I did with a doctor that cares and will help you. God bless.

From the minute I was inquiring about an appointment through to an entire 2 hours of tests, I felt completely taken care of. Being in a foreign country where it’s not your first language can be daunting when needing healthcare. My healthcare navigator Leen was so wonderful. She brought me to each doctor or department, got me situated and was also my translator. She was kind, compassionate & so incredibly helpful. I was incredibly grateful to have her by my side. I saw Dr. Bassols who was incredibly warm, knowledgeable and put my fears at ease. The other technicians were also wonderful and caring. I highly recommend the staff and care I received at Centro Medico Teknon and the team from bookimed that connected me to them. Thank you everyone!!

In principle, the visit went very well, only good impressions remained. Now there are certain problems, because doctors at home do not agree with the diagnosis that was made in China, but we were provided with professional help at the Food Clinic. Despite the fact that the full-time translator was on vacation and we took it on our own, the visit went very well. The rooms are very good, they look like 5 star rooms. As soon as we arrived, the nurses came to the ward, measured the pressure, helped in everything. In general, the clinic staff is friendly and helpful.

We got to the MEMORIAL clinic due to an urgent diagnosis. The successful outcome of the operation depended on promptness. The question was about days. The operation was carried out the next day. The most difficult operation according to the Whipple method. Conducted by professor, head of surgery. Low bow to him. The entire staff of the department works perfectly, promptly responds to any request. Separately, I want to say about the work of the translator Aida. High qualification, operational work at any time of the day, sincerity - only a small description of her qualities. Special thanks for providing meals to the patient and accompanying person. The cuisine is very tasty, in some positions it is better than homemade. I enjoyed the vegetarian cuisine. But there is a different one. A low bow to all the staff of the clinic. They saved my husband's life.

Just returned from there. Everything was top notch, and doctors, and the organization of the stay. It took 2 days from the first call to the bookmarked to my arrival in Milan. The next morning, consult a doctor. All questions were solved almost instantly, the results of all analyzes and studies were ready the next day. And constantly in touch with the coordinator Catherine and care worker Alexander. In my trips to the clinic, I was accompanied by a super translator Yulya Sukhneva. Thanks to the clear and professional work of Julia, Kati and Alexander, my stay was very short, I saved money on the hotel. The hotel, by the way, was excellent, up to the clinic, 200 meters. Yes, and more, the prices for consultations and analyzes are quite comparable with those in Moscow. I spent much less money than I thought at first. Thank you all!

I had to have my thyroid investigated and cut out if the investigations confirmed it. I was supposed to fly to the Russian Federation, but I couldn't. With the help of the Bookmed website, I asked for a suitable hospital and I was matched. I liked the offer from Lokman Hekim Istanbul - they provided me with a hotel, a ward, all the necessary tests, and everything was organised in a short time, but enough time for the treatment. I decided to choose Lokman Hekim Istanbul. I am very glad that I made this choice. Everything was very clear: we were met at the airport, brought to the hotel. When we had to go to the hospital, a car came to pick us up. They took us everywhere we needed to go for treatment, even to the pharmacies. When we arrived at the hospital, I was examined by the doctor Alaattin Ozturk. I told him about my symptoms and the analyses already done in the RF. The doctor studied all this, sent me to have a blood test and an ultrasound (we paid for the ultrasound ourselves, as it was not in the plan). All the analyses and ultrasound were done quickly. After that the doctor decided to operate on me on the same day. I was scared, but Dr Alaattin Ozturk's confidence reassured me. I realised that I was in good hands and everything was going well. Also the interpreter and coordinator Olga was very helpful, caring and "warm" in her communication. All this helped me to get through the stress before the operation, even though I was very reluctant to have it. We waited in the ward. At that time a nurse came and very carefully put a catheter in advance. This is a huge problem for me: before the catheter was put already in the operating theatre, and it was a torment - I was always stabbed all my hands, because my veins "hide". But here the nurse put the catheter in so painlessly that I didn't even realise it was already in place. About an hour later, I was taken into the operating room. The doctor translated to me what was being done to me before the operation, and once again I would like to say a big thank you to him. I was very afraid that I would lose my voice because they often nick the ligaments, but when I woke up everything was fine. I woke up easily. The first day after the operation I was up and feeling relatively fine considering I had the operation. The hospital staff were very caring: they took my blood pressure and temperature and put me on painkillers. I did not feel unwell. I would like to tell you separately about the ward. We were lying alone with my husband. The only disadvantage was that it was difficult for him to sleep on the couch. But everything else was just fine. I have never been in the hospital so well, and believe me - I have a lot of experience =) The bathroom is like in a good hotel: great shower, I was even able to take it. The ward is big, with good and different lighting, with a comfortable table. Everything was great, I was very comfortable. I had more problems with cystitis and Olga organised for me to see a urologist. He helped to solve the problem. I was given an antibiotic and a drip with a catheter free of charge. When we were discharged, we were taken to a pharmacy where we could buy everything. Then my husband was also taken to see a hair transplant surgeon, also free of charge and also by car. I saw the doctor on the last day - he removed my stitches and asked me to send him some tests. I was very happy that it was him who operated on me, and I was even sad to part with Olga. When the histology was ready, it turned out that I had cancer, and it was good that everything was done in time. If I have any health problems, I will definitely come back to this hospital. The people who work there treat patients and their families with care. I would also like to add that the Bookimed service made me very happy: they were interested in my health and asked me if I was OK. I liked the hospital they chose for me.

All You Need to Know about Radiotherapy

What is the essence of radiation therapy and why is it performed?

The main task of radiation therapy (radiotherapy) is to destroy cancer cells. This is due to exposure to radiation, which destroys their DNA.

The location of the tumor and the stage of the disease affect the goal of radiation therapy. Depending on this, the following types of procedures are distinguished:

  • Therapeutic. As the only method of treatment, radiation therapy is used:
    • with neoplasms that are difficult to access for surgery;
    • in the early stages of some types of cancer;
    • in oncohematological diseases, when it is necessary to irradiate the entire body.
  • Neoadjuvant is preoperative radiation. Doctors perform it to reduce the neoplasm and preserve tissues as much as possible during the operation.
  • Adjuvant - postoperative therapy. Destroys metastases (secondary tumors) and cancer cells that remained after the intervention in the area of the removed neoplasm.
  • Intraoperative - in some cases, replaces adjuvant radiotherapy. Doctors perform it during surgery after removing the visible part of the tumor to destroy the remaining cancer cells.
  • Palliative - indicated for patients with large inoperable neoplasms in the advanced stages of cancer to relieve symptoms.

What determines the cost of radiation therapy?

Factors that affect the cost of radiotherapy:

  • Tumor localization. The price will be higher if the tumor is located near large vessels or nerves and requires special accuracy and complexity of beam adjustment.
  • Dose, number of irradiated zones and sessions. The more of them, the higher the price of radiotherapy.
  • Selected country and clinic. The cost of radiotherapy in different countries can vary several times. For example, 1 course in Turkey costs from $3,068, and in Spain - from $9,371. This is due to the difference in pricing policies for medical services in states. Prices for radiation for cancer in different hospitals in the same country depend on the type of facility (private/public) and class
  • Additional medical services. These include the cost of tickets to the selected country, transfer from / to the airport, translation services, accommodation. In some clinics, the services of a Russian-speaking coordinator, translator, transfer and accommodation are included in the cost of treatment. Check with the Bookimed coordinating doctor when choosing a medical center.

How much does a course of radiation therapy cost?

Where can I read reviews of radiotherapy?

You can read the reviews about radiotherapy left by Bookimed patients in the clinic cards on this page. Here is one of them. He was left by a woman whose aunt was undergoing radiation therapy at the Solingen clinic in Germany.

Good afternoon everyone! The bookimed company helped a lot in solving the terrible misfortune that happened in my family - this is cancer, namely the consultant Koval Ivan, gave hope for my aunt's recovery. A few words about how bookimed advised us with the hospital: we submitted an application with a specific problem, and on the same day consultant Ivan called us back, exactly one day later we were offered three options for hospitals in Europe with a full description of doctors and the cost of treatment. A week later, we were already in Germany for an appointment with Professor Dr. Hensch, the consultation was held at a very high level. Now my aunt is being treated and I am sure that the treatment will be successful.)) I think my aunt will tell you in more detail after she has fully recovered. Personally, on behalf of myself and all of my family, I want to say a HUGE thank you to Bookimed and Ivan for the quality work.

What do Bookimed patients look for when choosing a clinic?

When choosing a medical center for radiation therapy, you need to pay attention to:

  • Year of manufacture of the device. The newer the unit, the more accurate, effective and safer the radiotherapy will be. Therefore, choose a clinic that uses units no older than 2013.
  • Qualified radiation oncologist. Leading experts in this field have at least 15 years of practical experience. It is important that he has regular fellowships in other countries (eg USA) and is a member of international organizations such as the American Society of Radiation Oncology ( ASTRO ) and the European Association for Radiation Therapy and Oncology ( ESTRO ).

What are the types of radiation therapy?

Depending on the method of irradiation, the following types of procedures are distinguished:

Remote (external) radiation therapy

Doctors irradiate the tumor using a special device - a linear accelerator, which is located at a distance from the patient and produces radiation beams.

The Cancer Research UK charitable organization distinguishes the following types of remote radiotherapy:

  • 3D-conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) - the device creates a three-dimensional model of the neoplasm and acts on it from different angles;
  • Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) - allows you to accurately calculate the doses of radiation required for each of the areas of the tumor, and adjust the beam to the shape of the tumor.
  • Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) – During the procedure, the machine takes CT scans of the tumor. Thanks to this, the doctor can correct the position of the patient's body and accurately direct the radiation beam to the neoplasm.
  • Hypofractional stereotactic radiotherapy (SBRT) is an exposure of a neoplasm to a high dose of radiation. The procedure is only indicated for certain forms of cancer (eg, liver, lung, spine).
  • Proton beam therapy - during such treatment, the destruction of cancer cells occurs due to a beam of protons. The radiation dose is lower than with other types of radiotherapy.

Contact radiation therapy (brachytherapy)

Doctors place a source of radiation (needles, capsules, seeds) inside or near the tumor. The substance affects the neoplasm locally and does not harm the body as a whole.

Radionuclide therapy

The patient takes an oral or intravenous drug with radiation that accumulates in malignant cells. Radionuclide methods of irradiation include radioiodine therapy.

How is radiation therapy performed?

external beam radiation therapy

This is a painless procedure that does not require anesthesia. Moreover, if the patient is a child, doctors use special sedatives that calm him down and allow him to lie still during the irradiation session.

During the procedure, the patient is on a special couch. His body is given the necessary position and fixed to avoid displacement. If necessary, also fix the head with a special mesh.

Brachytherapy

It is performed under local or general anesthesia. The doctor places radioactive grains into the organ with special needles. He controls the course of the procedure using ultrasound.

Radioiodine therapy

Under the supervision of a doctor, the patient takes a capsule with an individual dose of radioiodine , which is selected according to the results of the examination. The radionuclide does not harm the patient's body, but may affect the health of others. Therefore, for 3-7 days he remains in an individual ward with a special ventilation sy.

What side effects and complications can occur after irradiation?

After remote radiation therapy, the patient may experience syic complications associated with the general condition, and local ones in the area in which the radiotherapy took place.

Local

Syic

burns

Weakness

Fragility of blood vessels

Violation of hematopoiesis

Small focal hemorrhages

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea

Ulceration of the irradiated surface

Hair loss, brittle nails

How long does treatment last at Bookimed partner clinics?

The mode of radiation therapy depends on its type:

  • Duration of 1 session of remote radiation therapy is 10-45 minutes. The course takes, on average, 2 weeks (5 procedures each). The number of courses is individual for each patient. Doctors determine the need for hospitalization according to the general state of health. In some cases, a single irradiation of the tumor (radiosurgery) is indicated.
  • Brachytherapy takes 1.5 hours, hospitalization after it - 2 days.
  • After taking radioactive iodine, the patient stays in the clinic for an average of 7 days.
