About the clinic
Radiation therapy for stomach cancer at Hisar Hospital Intercontinental in Istanbul uses advanced MR-LINAC technology to target tumors with high precision. This JCI-accredited facility is one of the few in the region offering real-time MRI-guided treatment for gastric malignancies. The approach helps protect healthy organs while focusing radiation directly on the cancer cells.
Advanced MR-LINAC Technology
Hisar Hospital uses a 1.5 Tesla MR-LINAC device, which is one of only three such machines in Istanbul. This technology combines a high-strength magnetic resonance imaging scanner with a linear accelerator. It allows doctors to see the tumor in real-time during the radiation session. Because the stomach moves during breathing and digestion, this imaging helps the beam follow the tumor accurately. This method helps spare healthy surrounding tissues and typically results in fewer side effects than standard radiotherapy.
Multidisciplinary Care and Diagnosis
Treatment begins with a thorough staging process to check how far the cancer has spread. Patients may undergo a gastroscopy with a biopsy, abdominal CT scans, or an ultrasound. A team of experts from radiology, gastroenterology, and general surgery collaborates on every case. They work with pathology and oncology specialists to decide if radiation should be used alone or with other methods. Radiotherapy is often combined with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or performed after surgery to improve outcomes.
Expert Radiation Oncology
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Görkem Türkkan leads the radiation oncology plans at the hospital. As a specialist in his field, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Türkkan focuses on creating targeted protocols for complex stomach cancer cases. He oversees the use of MR-LINAC to make sure the radiation doses are precise. His role involves coordinating with the multidisciplinary team to integrate radiotherapy into the patient's full treatment cycle.
International Patient Support
Hisar Hospital Intercontinental provides specific services for patients traveling from abroad. The hospital offers airport transfers to help with logistics upon arrival in Turkey. To help with communication, free interpreters are available in more than 15 languages. These services support a smooth experience for international patients throughout their diagnosis and treatment for stomach cancer.

I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence
My primary concern before traveling for a PET-CT with Gallium 68 was the logistical side of things and whether every step would be clearly explained and executed in a new medical system. These worries proved to be entirely unfounded. The entire process was managed with clear and direct communication from the staff and the surgeon, which made a significant difference. The clinic's organization was evident. Everything was handled systematically, and each stage of the diagnostic procedure was laid out for me beforehand, so there were no surprises. The approach was very professional. but I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence.

The staff were a definite highlight, providing excellent support and guidance throughout the PET-CT with Gallium 68 PSMA scan
I came away with a positive overall impression of the day. The staff were a definite highlight, providing excellent support and guidance throughout the PET-CT with Gallium 68 PSMA scan. They made me feel looked after. The doctor was professional and the clinic itself was well-equipped. My only negative, and the reason for a lower overall score, was the airport transfer. The taxi was difficult for me to get in and out of. More importantly, upon arrival at the airport, I could not find the driver at the designated meeting point, which created unnecessary stress. While the medical care was handled very well, the logistics of the transport could be improved.
