Diagnostics for Atrial Fibrillation
The clinic offers a full diagnostic pathway to map the heart's electrical activity and structure. Patients begin with a consultation and initial tests.
- ECG (Electrocardiogram): This quick test records the heart's rhythm and may cost around $50.
- Advanced Imaging: Detailed views are provided by a CT scan for about $400 or a Heart MRI for around $450.
- Extended Blood Analysis: This checks for underlying conditions and typically costs between $400 and $1,000.
- Electrophysiological Study (EPS): This invasive test maps the heart's electrical signals in detail.
- Coronary Angiography: This procedure visualizes heart arteries and is priced around 1,000 EUR.
Treatment Options
The main treatment for atrial fibrillation is catheter ablation. This minimally invasive procedure corrects abnormal heart rhythms. Prof. Fethi Kılıçaslan, head of the cardiology department, specializes in these techniques. The hospital uses modern 3D mapping systems for precision.
- Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation (RFA): This is the standard procedure. A catheter delivers energy to create tiny scars in heart tissue. This blocks faulty electrical signals. The procedure takes 2 to 4 hours. Patients stay in the hospital for about one night for monitoring. The total stay in Turkey is typically 7 to 10 days. A package for this treatment may cost around 13,000-15,000 EUR. It usually includes the doctor's exam, pre-tests, the RFA procedure, one night of hospitalization, and a control exam 9 days later.
- Supraventricular Ablation: This is another catheter-based option using radiofrequency energy. The procedure also takes approximately 2 to 4 hours. It can be done under local sedation or general anesthesia. This treatment may cost around $16,000 USD.
Medipol Mega's JCI-accredited facility is equipped with four advanced angiography devices. This supports complex cardiac interventions. For a personalized assessment and treatment plan, consulting with the hospital's specialist team is the recommended next step.
