Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors Treatment in Assuta Medical Center
About the clinic
Patients seeking treatment for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors at Assuta Medical Center in Tel Aviv, Israel, benefit from the largest private medical network in the country. Treatment options range from a $500 histopathology revision to advanced PET/CT scans for $1,200–$2,200 and NanoKnife ablation costing around $30,000–$45,000. The hospital holds JCI accreditation and performs 92,000+ operations annually using a multidisciplinary team approach.
Advanced diagnostics for pancreatic tumors
Accurate staging and cell analysis are vital before starting therapy. The clinic performs over 685,000 diagnostic procedures each year. A dedicated team evaluates each case using several specialized tools:
- Histopathology revision. Specialists re-examine existing biopsy samples to confirm the exact tumor type.
- PET/CT imaging. This scan helps locate tumor cells and check for spread throughout the body.
- MRI (3 Tesla). High-resolution imaging provides detailed views of the pancreas and nearby tissues.
- Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). This method combines ultrasound with endoscopy to take fine-needle aspiration (FNA) samples.
- ERCP. This procedure helps examine the bile and pancreatic ducts for blockages.
Minimally invasive and surgical treatments
Assuta Medical Center uses non-thermal methods and robotic systems to treat tumors that were previously difficult to reach. These techniques help protect healthy tissue and vital structures.
- NanoKnife (IRE). This therapy uses high-voltage electrical pulses to destroy tumor cells. It is non-thermal, so it does not damage blood vessels or ducts. It is often an alternative when traditional surgery is not possible. Patients typically stay 1-2 nights in the hospital.
- Robotic pancreatic surgery. Surgeons use the Da Vinci robotic system for precise tumor removal. Procedures include enucleation, distal pancreatectomy, or the Whipple procedure. The robotic approach helps shorten recovery compared to open surgery.
- MRI-guided radiotherapy. The clinic uses the MR Linac system for real-time tumor targeting. This technology adjusts the radiation beam as the patient breathes or as organs move. It is an outpatient procedure that may replace surgery in specific cases.
Clinic features and technology
Assuta Medical Center works with over 1,500 doctors to provide specialized care. The facility features operating rooms equipped with the latest robotic technologies and advanced imaging tools like the MR LINAC. Because it is the largest private network in Israel, patients have access to 11 different hospital sites for various stages of their care.
