rnrnu201cIn general if we need to radiate different parts that is with different dozes, then I prefer IMRT. For example if we have a patient with nasopharyngeal cancer, we definitely need to radiate bilateral neck too, even if there is no lump in the neck, in that case we need to concentrate on those two nasopharynx but we also give a lower level of doze to the neck.rnrnIn this case we definitely need IMRT. But in some cases such as acoustic neuromas in the brain or u2026. when the lesions are very close to critical structures and margins are visible, then in those cases we definitely use cyberknife. The selection of the technique depends upon the u2026..rnrnLet me tell about first indications.u00a0 In cyberknife mainly for greymatter and in some of those patientsu2026u2026 if you give radiations with the other techniques itu2019s not easy to give an extra dose to u2026..with those techniques so cyberknifeu00a0 is an excellent device to give radiations to previously radiated regions.rnrnWe use it for acoustic neuromas and meningiomas. Those are benign tumors actually but because of the quick locations, they may be very problematic. We had many patients with lung cancer. We had very good results. In lung cancer cases we use it for pancreatic cancer, sometimes alone and sometimes in combination with IMRT, we use it for prostate cancer. Recently, we had many patients with liver metastases. Liver is very sensitive to radiations. Until recently we are not been able to use radiation for liver metastases. But with cyberknife, we can easily treat liver metastases with radiations.rnrnIn general theoretically we can use cyberknife for tumors in any location and as I said earlier especially in previously radiated patientu2019s cyberknife may give second chance to the patients, of course in selected patients, cases.rnrnIn last 3 or 4 years, we have seen many patients from other countries mainly from Bulgaria, Romania then Turkish speaking countries, Kosovo, some patients from Arabic countries. So we have patients from very far away countries. We have some patients from Australia, Canada, Portugal, but the bulk of the patients are from Balkans. We generally, give second opinion that means if we receive the documents about pathology, about the medical history, about recent situations and previous treatments. If we see the images, then we can give a rough idea if the patient is suitable for cyberknife or IMRT. We can give an idea.u201drnrnPatients come to Turkey from different countries like Kosovo, Bulgaria, Romania and some patients come from Arabian countries.u00a0 Also patients from far away countries like Australia, Canada, Portugal and Balkans, come to Turkey for high quality cyberknife treatment at affordable cost.u00a0 Well-trained doctors and state of art facilities in hospitals make Turkey a perfect destination for these medical tourists.rnrn<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>rnrn
